Many of you know that last Friday I
went in for my 3 month CT scan. I was going to wait to tell you the results
until I knew more, but I’ve decided to go ahead and share what I know….
The results of my 3 months without
treatment are mixed. Apparently, some of the tumors are bigger, some are
smaller. Dr. Kohrt said that by
measurement, the disease is stable. The biggest concern is that there is a
tumor in my abdomen that is blocking one of my kidneys. Apparently, they need to get rid of the
blockage or there is a potential that I could lose a kidney.
Unfortunately, that’s all I know now.
I am waiting for direction from my fabulous team. They are looking at multiple
options for next steps and hopefully I’ll know soon what our next course of
treatment will be.
As we get closer to Thanksgiving day,
I keep reminding myself how grateful that I am for my amazing family and
friends and my extraordinary healthcare. The fact that Dr. Kohrt e-mailed me
over the weekend just because he knew that I’d be nervous about my results
speaks volumes about the phenomenal team that I have working on me.
Thank you all for praying
for me, sending me positive energy and quite frankly, just for being there. I don’t
know what the future brings, but I know that because of my incredible support
network, I’ll be just fine, whatever is in store.
