Andrea B. Posted August 4, 2003 Share Posted August 4, 2003 Hi, Last week I had requested some prayers for my mom as she was undergoing a CT scan and an upcoming PET scan. Well, we received the news on the CT scan that the "cavity" (they still aren't sure if there is cancer present) had shrunk by 1/3 since June and that the cough she has been enduring is due to an infection not cancer - Thank You God! Tomorrow she will have a PET scan to determine how the chemo is working and if there is anything present in the lung. They are unable to do a needle aspiration (for fear of infection) or a bronchoscopy (due to the location) at this point. My mom is a true fighter (I continue to learn so much from her) who has an amazing attitude and a fierce strength. She is my inspiration. I continue to pray for my mom and everyone else who battles this awful demon. You are all in my thoughts daily. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
