I mentioned that I visited the doctor yesterday. What I forgot to talk about is some happy news. If I do well on this chemo it opens doors. We were speechless when he set up appointments with us for in June!! Its hard to believe that just 2 months ago I was on hospice care, and told I had weeks/a couple months to live.
The chemo is doing well. No real side effects(which is good). I will stay on this drug combo for as long as possible. If bad effects start happening then we stop. These drugs have been shown to shrink tumors in brain completely in one patient. Eric and I have read review after review that has good news. This is amazing. It passed just in time. When we say its "new" we mean literally just approved.
I seem to be getting stronger on my feet as each day passes. I had my last radiation today. No side effects! woohoooo! So now we wait. I have scans on the 25th. Until then I nap, and spend time with family. If the weather is nice maybe a zoo visit. :)
Cassie, Praise God, I am speechless. I am so happy you are doing so well on this new medicine. and so glad you are getting your strength back. Hang in there sweetheart. You are a real trooper. I love you and hope to see you soon. This is the best birthday present anyone could get. Granny B.
