Hello All,
I know that it has been awhile since I last posted. Life has been extremely busy, hectic, crazy, exhausting, and packed.
First off, we are all well and happy (for the most part).
We bought a home and moved within this past month. We have a new address-more than willing to share but not via blog-will share via private e-mail. Our # is the same.
Update on me...
CA 27-29 was down to 65 as of last week.
MRI (5/1/09) showed that spot in L4 is bigger than last MRI done in March 09. MRI also showed 2 spots in S1, Lf. Femur, and Rt. Illiac. Case presented at tumor rounds this past Wednesday (5/6). Plan is to wait another 6 weeks to see if spots get bigger or stay the same. Doctors are still hoping the hormone treatment will take care of all spots and prevent additional spots from developing. We will repeat MRI in June in addition to a PET Scan. We will continue to test CA 27-29 on a monthly basis.
Appt. at Dana Farber went fine. Dr. Lin feels that we are on the "right" track for now in terms of treatment and assessment (labs/scans).
Will share more this w/e (in btw. unpacking and getting organized in the new house).
I hope you are all well, happy, and healthy.
Have a great day!
Lisa
Lisa, we heard about your move - that is really exciting - must feel better than you expected to own your home and it really is your own as you add your own touches. We are both really happy for that. Your doctors do sound supportive of your treatment and waiting a bit to re-scan.
ReplyDeleteWe are very optimistic and certainly pray that you continue to do well. You need lots of energy to do all that your days hold !! Love to all of your famly - Dick and Liz
Hi Lisa! It has been a long time since we checked in and so glad to see a new post. Your lab values are fabulous! Know moving and getting situated in a new home is very demanding . . .but very exciting at the same time! Sounds like the doctors are in agreement that a "wait and see" approach is the best one to pursue for now. So, we will too!
ReplyDeleteWe're cheering you on from Oklahoma to be tumor free! Know Ken and Barb will be there soon. We're continuing to pray and send you healing vibes from here. Our love to you and your family, Uncle Frank and Aunt Pat.
Hi Lisa! Congratulations on being new home owners. I know what you are going through. We moved to Lake Ann in November, and after fighting with all the snow, are now trying to landscape and make the "house" out "home." I am still praying for you everyday, and know God has you in His hands. You are such an inspiration to all of us. Love, Barb.
