3rd Time's a Charm?

Following are the pictures of what I hope is my last round of radiation, despite my adoration for the doctors and nurses there.

Eric stayed home this round to take care of the kids, allowing one of the greatest individuals on earth, Kim, to accompany me.

After 3-4 attempts of accessing my port, it finally worked with a longer needle.

Check out how swollen my head is where the screws go in. I think most of the swelling is the lidocaine.

Here we go for another ambulance ride to the building next door. LOL

And here we are for radiation.


Of the 5 remaining tumors, 2 shrunk so much that my doctor opted not to radiate them. The other 3 shrunk by almost half, and the previously treated tumors look like scar tissue, meaning not living. In other words, my body is responding beautifully to the chemotherapy – it’s working in the brain!! Dr. Ahn said he does this all the time and doesn’t see this kind of rapid success, not with the number of tumors that I had.

The plan is to continue chemo every two weeks and have another MRI in 2-3 months to check up on things, as well as a full body scan. Things are going well and I think can only get better! Thank you for all the prayers that are obviously being heard!!!! I Love you!
