Six More Treatments Before Summer

Hi all!
I have some more chemo treatments to get through. I would appreciate some rides. People have been generous about their offers, but I got off schedule with low blood counts and have had to re-schedule. So if you are interested, the following dates are "open": Friday, June 14th, 7:30 am; Monday, June 17th, 8:00 am. Thereafter, the dates will be scheduled after Thursday, June 3rd. I would expect on the Monday, June 7th; Thursday, June 11th and Monday, June 14th (also Nathaniel's last day of school).

These will be followed by CT scan and possible radio ablation of the liver tumor, if any remains. I have been offered the trial drug, indefinitely. Since it is not yet approved by the FDA and is not commercially available, I may opt to stay on the PARP inhibitor for awhile (at least as long as it is effective). This would mean that I would continue with infusions, since it is not available in pill form (unfortunately). So I would still be going into Dana Farber on Days 1,4,8,12 for an infusion of BSI-201. I would then have an 8 day break and start and new cycle.

I am enjoying this Spring and a new garden which was put in last Fall with the help of friends. It is a wonderful retreat for me when the weather is nice. Also I am looking forward to migrating to our summer home in June.

With best wishes,
Maura
