Dear Mallory, Cindy and I were thinking of you today. When my white count was low and I had to get a Hemoglobin shot about 5 days later I encountered bone flare pains in the center of my back that lasted for almost 12 hours. Dr. Waits warned me about them so I knew exactly what to expect. I hope you don't have to deal with them and chances are that you won't. My treatments also made me feel very confused and simply feeling drained and sick. I remember days that I couldn't even focus on the TV. Lots of days I also wondered what was worse, the cure or the disease so remember thats completely normal to feel that way. Mallory you are going to beat this thing and you must keep thinking about that beautiful golden sky that will shine when this storm is over. Trust me, it will work for you just as it has worked for me. I felt the exact same way that you are feeling now when I had my treatments and now I'm living proof that Cancer can be beaten. I'm just about to the 3 year mark from when it hit me and now Dr. Waits say's that I'm doing excellent!! I know that you will too!!!! Hang in there and e-mail me if I can help you in any way. Cindy was effected by the Toyota layoff but all intentions are that things will pick up there in a few months down the road. We'll keep You, Mark and your family in our prayers everyday. My deepest Hope and Inspiration to you, Bobby Schneider
