hi LK, we won't know how the radiation helped with killing the bone tumors on her hip/pelvic area for a couple weeks, she told me it hurts to lay or sit really bad, but now she can at least stand on her own. She has been on break from chemo and started that back up today, and she is glad to be doing that since we were told there was "improvement" last chemo period test results. No change or new tumors on the liver, but she did not know there were two spots on her lung, and there was a slight decrease in size of the lymph nodes with cancer, and the fluid was minimum on her lungs and none around her heart. We took that as a victory and went to Branson to celebrate that two weeks ago. Now that she has been off the chemo she started feeling sick and was afraid the cancer has spread, so that is why she is always glad to be on the chemo. I told her to think positive and quit letting her paranoia and fears take over her attitude as we know that worry and negativity can manifest cancer growth.
I had a few more glorys greet me the other morning while it was snowing heavily outside..
