Don't bring flowers....Margaret's Chemo Regime
INDUCTION OF REMISSION — The most common remission induction regimen includes cytarabine (cytosine arabinoside, Ara-C, or Cytosar), given continuously for seven days through an intravenous (IV) line. Daunorubicin (Daunomycin, Cerubidine, or Rubidomycin) is given in a single IV dose for the first three days of treatment. This is sometimes known as the "7+3" regimen.

Good morning to Margaret. I don't know you, but I'm pulling for you. Mary is in my videoblogging class and I helped her learn to blog!
I am leaving you a link to a video I made for a friend in Philadelphia, who was missing the sun. I thought it might bring you a little sunshine as well. Here it is: http://www.hummingcrow.com/2007/04/04/bottled-sunshine/
You are in my prayers. I hope today is a good day!
