We are so sorry that its been so long since an update. It's been difficult to write a post here! I had a chest CT scan and an MRI on August 8th. The CT scan was normal which is good because that means the cancer has not spread!! And the MRI shows that the tumor has shrunk even more and the doctors think that all that might be left is scar tissue!!!! We will know for sure the first week of November when we do a PET scan which will light up any cancer cells in my body. I am sure it won't show anything though.
I got to see all of my friends at school today. That was awesome! I was very happy to see them! I also switched out my 2nd grade books for my 3rd grade books. Looks like I'll be learning cursive finally!
I hope everyone is doing good and is happy, I am. I feel so much better and have tons more energy!
Hey Alexia, more best wishes from an acquaintance of your dad through dgcr.com:
ReplyDeleteHadn't looked in on your blog for months, and just decided to check in. So glad things are looking well!
Good luck in 3rd grade. Study hard: it's a more challenging year (I've worked in the schools for 28 years, and know 3rd grade can be fun and interesting!).
Finally, I'm one of many hoping for an awesome report in November, and then, you have the best trip of your life. DisneyWorld is an amazing place!
Keep hanging in there, girl!
