Week 9

Had a very long day today but it got better this evening. I spent most of the day at the hospital again. Today was my monthly meeting with my doctor and they were backed up again. Everything was still looking good and since I am still having constant pain on my right side he gave me more medicine to try and help. To my surprise my doctor called me tonight to let me know my blood test results came back already and showed another large decrease in the "tumor indicator" - I still don't completely understand but what I do know is decreasing is GOOD. I started out at 154 (normal is 38 or less), last month it had gone down to 132, today it is down to 83. Yeah!!!! I start my 3rd month of treatment this Thursday which won't be fun but at least all your prayers are working.

I can't thank my family and friends enough for all your prayers and your donations. As hard as it is for me to accept help I don't know what I'd do without it - I am so blessed. It is appreciated more than you can imagine.

The rest of this week will be busy trying to get ready for the holidays at work and home - hope everyone is doing well!

Love and prayers,

Lynn
