Update: 5/16/14
Okay I'm going to make this short and sweet because I'm writing this from my phone and it is a pain to post from. But I wanted to give everyone a quick update. I had another Dr appointment in Columbus this past Friday. My Dr reported that the spot on my liver had grown but that the other spots in my breasts, lungs and bones hadnt grown in size.! Huge praise! I have been on this daily pill (targeted therapy) for about 2 months now and it definitely feels like it's helping. The past couple of weeks I have felt pretty good with more energy and better appetite. This is a huge praise because the older Carter gets the more active he gets and he is very close to crawling so that means I'm going to need even more energy to chase after him. We also got approval for the immune therapy drug so we were able to start that on Friday. It's an hour and a half infusion through my port that I will get every 3 weeks. That will build in my system over the next 12 weeks. Unfortunately I'm having a reaction to the new medicine (red bumpy itchy rash) but I've got a call into them to see what we can do about that. We will also be calling the trial in Maryland to get more info on that.
Thank you for all your continued prayers. It has been so great to feel better, have energy and just not to feel so sick! Please continue to pray for these medicines to continue to help, for me to continue to feel good and for this rash to go away. Thank you so very much to all who have helped and supported us! We continue to be blessed by amazing family and community support! We can not thank you all enough for all your help!
