Gabriel,

I can write to you in Spanish as well, but I will begin in English. I'm sorry your mom has to have chemo but know that there are many others who have had to go through the same thing and are doing well.  She can be one of them.

 No se que tipo de medicamiento les dan los doctores antes de empezar chemo donde viven ustedes pero siempre es buena idea hacer muchas preguntas al doctor antes de empezar tratamiento.  Mi padre empezo chemo en noviembre del 2007 ( a los 71 anos) y a el no le dan mas que un medicamiento contra la nausea cada vez que va para un tratamiento contra el cancer.  Mas que eso no se de otra cosa para preparar a los pacientes.  Si se que a mi papa no le causo nunca nausea. Tuvo un poco de diarrea hace unas pocas semanas porque ahora le han cambiaron la combinacion de medicamientos y la diarrea es uno de los efectos pero hasta eso le ha acabado.  Perdio el cabello tambien solo despues de 18 meses, pero otra vez pienso que sea el efecto de esta combinacion de drogas.  Les puedo decir que si es posible vivir normalmente y trabajar y hasta viajar mientras uno lucha con esta enfermedad.  El atitud es TODO!  Mi papa es muy fuerte de espirito y tambien encontro un doctor en quien confia mucho en el y en lo que esta haciendo para ganar la guerra esta.  Adelante, senora!!
