The first scan shows no growth, or if anything a tiny bit of shrinkage. It's good news but tempered by the fact that I need a LOT of shrinkage to get to an operation that could save me.
So the work continues, and I keep working at chemo, diet, exercise, mind work, and supplements, and try and make this work.
Thank you for all the encouragement and help... It makes a BIG difference to me!

phew! great work guys. perhaps you forget how amazing stabilization is so let me remind you 'k? I feel like all of the extra mental/physical and spiritual cleaning you've done has paid off and I'm a huge fan of the way you both have come together and taken control of what you can. YOU BOTH RULE. xxx m
ReplyDeleteAi Dave,
ReplyDeleteHave been checking and waiting all night for your report. Some relief for sure! You have made some tremednous changes in lifestyle and that's no easy task, I give it to you for that--keep it going and you will make it work!
I'm going to Europe for the next several weeks, but when I return both Harry and Melissa will be at U/Mass, so I hope to visit them and you in the beautiful autumn light.
Till, then I'll keep checking and wishing you all my love to you, Monika and the kids.
