Our prayers continue to be answered! As most of you know, Mom continues to beat the averages of what doctors said would happen so far. Oh, we are so thankful! Yesterday, Mom had another CT scan to check the progress of her treatment. The results were good - no change. The tumors have stayed in check! There is still concern for her spleen that they will continue to watch (read last CT scan update from December). All in all, everything looks fine.
Mom will continue the same treatment plan every other Monday for another 2 months when they will do another CT scan. This treatment plan is to maintain & keep the cancer in check and is relatively tolerable for Mom so the benefit of the treatment out-way the side effects.
Mom & Tim had a nice vacation in Arizona last week; I know they hoped to return to much warmer weather! They said it was relaxing and fun and were not too excited about coming back. At least their trip back returned them with some good news!
Again, thank you so much for all of your prayers & support for Mom...keep them coming! -- Tania

It's Been Awhile...
Hi everyone, sorry, it's been awhile since I posted. I really hadn't realize...time goes by fast when everything is silent I guess!
The good news is everything is going ... just fine. Mom continues chemo treatment every other week - doing her best to keep her spirits high & stay positive. Almost every week, she gets a shot to help boost her white blood cell production so that tends to make her body ache a bit. So, she still has those few bad days every other week that tend to make her feel a little down. We all know how good Mom is at sitting & resting?!?!
Mom & Tim are heading to Phoenix, AZ this weekend for a week long vacation which is great; much needed for them. They're going with some friends, Brenda & Dave Luckey and to visit Sharon's parents (Melvin & Verona). I'm so happy they are going.
When they come back, Mom will have another CT scan to get an update on how things are going. Please keep your prayers with them on their travels and for another good report from the scan.
Check back on Feb. 23rd for an update. I always have to end with a thank you for all of your support to Mom as she continues to battle her cancer.
