Scan Results and the way forward

Today (Friday August 24 2012), Dr Young shared with us the results of the CT Scan that was performed yesterday.

Teresa's tumor is smaller than the original scan. That is good news, certainly, from our original scan. Dr. Young was very pleased that things were moving in the right direction, especially since we have only had 4 rounds of chemo.

Teresa is still in Baptist Hospital receiving fluids and trying to get her digestive system back on track. We are to receive a different medication to help that along today and then tomorrow morning we will be discharged.

Our next round of chemo won't be until the day after Labor Day, which gives Teresa a much needed break. We will continue on the protocol that we have been following with a slight reduction in the dosage of the drug that is the source of our digestive issues.

Keep praying. This is good news but it is not the best news which is a complete healing from cancer!

Nothing is too hard for our Jesus and we are trusting simply in what He has told us.

We are going to celebrate Alfie's baptism on Sunday. It will be a great start to a great week.

We love you all and thank you for your prayers, your support, your food and your embodiment of the Spirit of Jesus.
