My first post to this thread was 10 months ago. It seems like yesterday. I had a follow up scan two weeks ago and Dr. Magnifico said he would have been pleased if eveything was the same but to his surprise the original tumors were "progressively reduced". All blood tests were normal including a normal liver function test. It has been a wonderful summer full of family gatherings that included another birthday and the grands and greatgrands enjoying the pool.
Of course the cancer is not completely gone so we just have to wait and see.Hopefully the chemo messed with the tumors DNA like it was supposed to. I have gotten a spring and summer that I was not supposed to have so it's all good and I am hoping to see many more.
I want to thank you all again for your encouragement and support over the last few difficult months.
Blessings.....Jean
