I flunked chemo!

Well, I flunked chemo today, or more accurately, my blood test.  Both my platelet and hemoglobin counts were below the minimum level for receiving chemotherapy, so no treatment this week, except for Herceptin. Needless to say, I'm disappointed.  I was so hoping to finish this second leg of my tetrathalon today.  I am trying to focus on the fact that an extra week's wait isn't much in the larger scheme of things, but I haven't totally convinced myself of that yet.  I will!  In the meantime, keep your fingers crossed that my counts are above the threshold next Monday and I can receive my final round!
