LolasDaughter Posted December 14, 2007 Posted December 14, 2007 Just got the call from Mom and her CT scan showed a 25% reduction in her tumor! This was enough shrinkage that she will now begin radiation on 12/26 - at the start of her 3rd round of chemo. She will have 1x/day radiation for six weeks. She was mapped today and has her "dry run" next week. We're thrilled with this news and ready to bring out the next line of heavy artilary! And for all who have posted re: radiation in the past - thank you! I've been reading the posts and they are very helpful. Have a great weekend, everyone! Nicole Quote
