Don Wood Posted April 16, 2003 Share Posted April 16, 2003 Hi, guys and gals! Lucie's new tremor medicine is working well, so she doesn't have to deal with that. Her neurologist also had a crainal MRI done and it is clear! So another worry put to rest. We saw the oncologist Tuesday and he sounded optimistic for the first time. He said they would schedule one more chemo (Apr. 24) and then take a PET scan to see if there was any cancer activity. If not, she can go off the chemo. He also mentioned a drug that protects bone and may help in keeping cancer fron attaching -- he will put her on it if all is well. We are so pleased at all the good news.

Don Wood Posted April 18, 2003 Author Share Posted April 18, 2003 Ginny, we will have to forego the kalua because Lucie is allergic to alcohol (I'm not!). But we will definitely celebrate! Maybe I will have a marguerita! Don Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
