Hi, Ladies. I just want to thank you for continued prayers and cards and good wishes. After this week I will be halfway through treatment.
The stent to the kidney relieved so much pain in the back. The doctor adjusted my pain medicine so I have very little now. All the medicines are working to keep side effects to nil from the chemo.
I have to tell you that the good relief I am having makes me feel more positive about the outlook for the treatment. This is one of those "Do this for five to six weeks, check you at 6 more weeks, check once more at another 6 weeks and hope and pray the tumor is GONE at that point."
So, that is what I am picturing, PLAN A. There is a Plan B, but I like to think that God has got it all under control with the path of least resistance this time around.
Thank you, ladies, for all the encouragement. I so appreciate it.
