After starting my week with botched port accessing,
almost passing out, an IV in my wrist joint, and Ryan’s wake... it sure was nice
to get a good news call from my oncologist Monday evening. just as we were
pulling into the funeral home parking lot, Dr. Robins called and told us that my MRI
looked exactly as he had hoped it would. My scan showed no signs of recurrence
or progression, which means that the radiation and Avastin infusions are
working! Dr. Robins said my brain is healthier than it was on my last scan in September.
I will continue to receive immunotherapy infusions every two weeks,
indefinitely. My next MRI Is scheduled for January 25th. My eyes continue
to heal, but I’m still limited in my reading. We had busy days this week, so I
missed a few naps, and my eyes certainly let me know they were not pleased. I think I made up for it this afternoon with an epic
actual cat nap.
Also, I finally got the lidocaine to work today, so
when I got stabbed in the chest twice to get my port accessed, I only felt it a little the second time [Small victories].
Fight like Hell.
P.S. KITTENS!!!
