Hi Everyone--
Well, good news! I got the call today that everything has decreased in size and many also in activity. There is no new growth and all is going in the right direction, so this chemo regimen is working! I will just have to keep praying that the neuropathy stays under control as long as I keep going with these drugs. I am so thankful to God and to all of you for the thoughts, prayers, emails and support you've given me. Please keep that up--it really is helping me! Much love to you all!

Hi Everyone--
Well, I've completed the two rounds of the new chemo and Friday is my PET/CT scan. I should have the results on or before Wednesday, so please keep me in your thoughts and prayers as I await them. Things have been fairly uneventful on these two drugs. They made me tired & I lost my hair (but not eyelashes & brows). I had some mouth sores but the anti-nausea meds kept my stomach ok. I had to keep the needle in my arm for three days during chemo, but at least I got a month off after each round. My biggest worry is the neuropathy (numbness).
I will update my blog when I get the results. Thanks so much for all your love & support.
