DebsSky Posted April 21, 2006 Share Posted April 21, 2006 Well the news is in folks.... Not NED, but shrinkage!!! One brain tumour is almost gone and all other areas have reduced. Not sure by how much, but shrinkage is music to my ears. I knew as soon as my Mom's onc. walked in the room; he could hardly contain the smile. He grabbed my Mom and gave her a hug and told her how amazing she is. He never thought that it would work at all. I also gave him an LCSC cookbook because he loves cooking and he said he was going to pass it through the board at the Cross Cancer Institute in Edmonton to be able to start handing out the web address to his patients. He gave a big kudos to Rick and Katie, (I do too, by the way), for starting such a fantastic site. He said that there is not enough of them for lung cancer and that the "inane stigma of smokers doing it to themselves" was just that, stupid and hogwash too!! Thank you everyone, from the bottom of my heart for all your prayers. I continue to pray everyday for all here and more, Love, (a very happy) Deb Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
