Set Back

I know I have written plenty of “bad news” posts before, but this one is particularly difficult for me personally. Despite how well I feel, my scans not only showing the tumor is still there, but there are some signs of slight enlargement. On top of that, some abnormalities are showing in my liver that could be new metastases. At this point, they would not adjust any treatments yet, but will do a PET scan on May 16 to see if it shows radioativities or not. If so, they will follow up with a biopsy to see if it is cancerous.

    This difficult news just doesn’t seem possible. I’m sorry to hear it. But still there is much room for hope. As you move to regain strength and well being, this community that you brought together will continue to lift you up and offer what we can to help. Until we know more we will wait and watch and pray.
    May you have peace in this darkness.
