Guest guest Posted October 2, 2009 Report Share Posted October 2, 2009 Dear Jackie, Good luck to you and your dad when you go back to Houston. I don't have to be there until November 30 and my son has decided he is going to drive us there. My legs are swelling up and I have pleural effusions, but am afraid that when I go back to MDACC they will want to put me into a new trial. That's what they did with Sprycel. Every drug is not for everyone and if I get out of this trial and another doesn't work, I will have to start paying for them, and we all know the costs. I am down to going every 6 months now, but if they put me in another trial, it will be weekly trips again. Hope you have a good trip with good results. xoxox Lottie & Jimmy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 3, 2009 Report Share Posted October 3, 2009 Hi Lottie, That's nice of your son to drive you. It must be hard on you and Jimmie to make that trip alone. My Dad is doing really good. He had good news but is sad that I don't receive the same. I told him in time I will. It just takes me longer. My next appt is Oct 30. God Bless, Jackie S.
