Unfortunately there are only two drugs they have for Mrs L's type of cancer and the first one failed after 8 months last year so this is the only treatment available. It just has a number of side effects (- her hair is turning silver rather than dropping out) and the potential damage to the heart is another. Crossed fingers she does not get affected too badly with it - she does have a thing called a stent to help so we are hopeful - the scan was called MUGA scan which sounds like something out of a comic book heroes thing

YOur heart on this thing is supposed to pump at at least 50% of some measure and hers last time was at 39% so not good but not awful - we will see in due course how it is performing now
