As I prepared for my first chemotherapy appointment, I tried to pack anything that I thought I would need and went into the session optimistic that we were going to be killing a lot of cancer cells.

Shortly after my first treatment of Taxol began, I began to have a serious reaction. While in the midst of the reaction I felt like I was going to die, with pressure/pain in my chest, abdomen in excruciating pain and finding it very hard to breathe.

Dana-Farber immediately took all steps to stop this awful reaction and put me back on course. I am grateful for their actions in saving my life.

Despite this terrifying experience, I remain committed to my treatment plan and hitting this ovarian cancer with everything that I can. I trust in the doctors, nurses and Dana-Farber to put my best interest first.
