Terry spent 4 hours with her Oncologist and getting chemo today. The nurse tried 4-5 times before she got a vein that would keep the catheter viable. Sounds like a bad day-well it wasn't! Terry's CT scan came back and the growth in her lung is gone as is the growth in her jaw. In 4 weeks she will have another bone marrow biopsy and that will be more definitive about her current state of cancer. However the oncologist said that the two aforementioned growths were probably the same composition as the cancer in her bone marrow. Our supposition is if the two growths have gone while Terry is taking this new chemo regimen then we are praying that the chemo is having the same effect on her multiple myeloma. The bone marrow biopsy will be the proof of the pudding. Keep your fingers crossed and keep those prayers coming in.
FYI, Terry has had to rely on a cane for the past few months due to her disease. She still has it for security but she can toddle around pretty good without it.
SMALL VICTORIES!!!!
