Thank you for all the well wishes and support. We have a planned start date of Monday, January 29th for my first day of chemotherapy which will consist of four main infusions known as TCHP.
TCHP stands for:
- T – Taxotere® (Docetaxel)
- C – Carboplatin (Paraplatin®)
- H – Herceptin® (Trastuzumab)
- P – Perjeta® (Pertuzumab)
T & C are chemotherapy medications and are an antineoplastic agent and platinum chemotherapy, respectively.
H & P are targeted therapy for HER2+ cells and are monoclonal antibodies.

Many of you know how long my to do list normally is, but for now, I'm going to keep it simple:
