July 2010 Cancer Update - New PET Scan

Lex and I met with my Onocologist on Wednesday of this week. The news was not what we wanted to hear but actually came as no big surprise because my tumor marker has been going back up for the past month. It seemes that the Chemo that has been working so well has lost it's power. You know cancer cells are smart and will fight anything in their way. We knew this but were hoping for at least 8 or 9 months of success instead of only 6 months. However, fortunately there are other drugs for this and I will be starting on 2 of them on the 26th of July. I will have them 2 weeks in a row and and skip a week. I don't know how these drugs will effect me yet but my Dr. says they should be the same as before as far as sickness or how I feel. As of now I continue to feel good almost everyday other then a little tired sometimes but that too passes. Lex and I still go like always for the most part. He is always here for me to pick up the slack. "God Bless him" because he IS a God send. Please,we still need the prayers from all of you because I know he is listening.

About Me

We live on the Ms. Gulf Coast now but my roots and many special memories are in Tenessee where we raised our 2 sons. (Who now live in Oregon) It's where most of my family is and my special friends. I sold real estate there for 20 years. Now I am retired and my new husband of 13 years live on the coast. He has a son and daughter in Texas and we try to go a couple times a year to Oregon and Texas. Lex and I are blessed with great kids, good health & a good life!
