Travel with Angela as she navigates CANCER
It’s been awhile since I posted an update. Hope you haven’t missed me too much 😉 My chemo #6 on Sept 8th went smoothly and there really wasn’t anything notable. It was same as usual, but by myself due to Covid guidelines. The surgeon here in Jupiter, Dr Bhagwandin, reviewed my CT scans from the…
