Hi Martin, Wow! I am so happy that you are doing so well and enjoying some time away for a well-deserved break. I'll bet the scenery is breathtaking where you are. I have been to France (Paris and Beaugency) a couple of times, but never saw the French Alps. Would love to go there someday and also Switzerland, Sweden, and Ireland). I am half Swedish and have many relatives there that I have never met. How long will you be staying there? Have you had your CT scan yet? Any updates from your doctor? I just finished my 5th cycle and had my week off this past week, and now starting my 6th cycle. I am going to confirm with my oncologist at the end of the month as to how much longer I have to go with the medication. I am doing fine, except found out that my dry eye problem has caused the light sensitivity and the lids were rubbing against the cornea. My eye doctor said it is reversible and has me on steroid/antibiotic eye drops which has resulted in some improvement, so I should be finished with those next week. I am now in the process of trying to work with my dermatologist and rheumatologist to see if my Lupus has flared up, and if so, is it because of the Xeloda, or because my Lupus medications had to be reduced since I am taking the chemo drug. Not sure yet, as many people have been having flare ups with the pre-cancer pink spots on their faces and other areas and I have had basal cell carcinoma on my face in the past, which required Mohs surgery. If it is pre-cancer spots, then no big deal, I just have to get treated for that. It's always something, and I think many doctors take an educated guess at times when someone has multiple health issues as to what is really the cause. In any event, I cannot complain too much, except for the feeling of fatigue at times when I am taking the chemo medication. Let me know how you are doing when you get a chance and what the doctor has to say. I have been thinking about you and sending very strong positive thoughts in hoping that you get some great news. Meanwhile, continue to enjoy your travels and all that Spring has to offer. My very best to you and your family. Lee
