WooHoo!!! My GENES fit!!!!

No, not those kind of jeans, my GENES!!! I am a candidate for the new oral chemotherapy drug. Brand name Xalkori, Generic name: Crizotinib. Now for the loads of paperwork to approve it through insurance and get started on the drug!! I am pleased and relieved to have another oral chemo drug. I was dreading going back for 4hr chemo room visits. Not because of the staff, they are fabulous, it's just boring as hell.
