Ok, here are the latest updates.
There is nothing in the bones. That is Good.
There IS cancer in the breast and lungs. That is Bad.
The tumor in the breast is the treatable kind. That is Good.
It's still going to take a lot of treatment to get the lung cancer out. That is Bad.
For the breast, we're treating with Herceptin - an antibiotic once every week.
For the rest, we're using what's called "T-A-C" treatment, once every three weeks.
Radiation may come later.
On Monday, we'll have a special shunt installed in her chest that will make injections easier instead of perforating every vein she has. Neat trick.
Wednesday, first treatment. Yippee.
