Topotecan

Sounds like a tropical drink. Just picture yourself sitting in a chaise lounge on a Bahamian island, feeling the breeze from the ocean on your face, beautiful soft teal water, glistening in the sun. And you are sipping on some exotic drink, doesn’t have to have liquor in it, just has to have the coconut, fruit, ice and umbrella sticking out. Oh how relaxing.

Now for the truth. You are being infused through the shoulder area with drugs. Drugs that will make you sick and ultimately, hopefully make you well. Why would they make a chemo drug sound so exotic?

Just my cancer thought for the day!

Here is a thought . Pretend it is a tropical drink . Oops don't do that because you won't take it . I guess you just have to take it until your break time . Love you .
