GREAT NEWS!!!!!!!!!!!!!

My scan were "beautiful"! No signs of metastatic disease. Bones, lungs, kidneys, liver, gallbladder all clear!!!

Thank you!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm so happy and relieved. I was sitting in my chemo chair when she gave me the news...if I could I would have jumped up and down with joy!!! My sister, Sara was with me we just hugged and cried tears of joy!

Thanks for all your prayers, they seem to be working for me!

Praise the Lord!!!

Chemo went well...no signs of allergic reaction, no nausea...just a little tired! Also, some more good news. I only have to do this chemo for 8 weeks instead of 12...my doctor is bumping up my dosage a little each time to cut the duration down a little bit! SWEET!

As I cried and told Fr. Job the wonderful news, he said, "God is beginning a great miracle". AMEN!! I'm so happy for you, Alex and the kids, I can hardly express it! Your positive outlook will go a long way to make the treatment more bearable. I am in awe of your strength and courage. Love to all--

As usual, I'm in the grocery store when I get the good news!! Kiley looks at me and says "Are those happy tears Mommy"? Of course they are!! I couldn't be more happy with the bone/organ scan results!! That is the greatest news ever!! The lord is working his way, and I know you will be cancer free sooner then you think! As you know, I pray for you constantly, as does all, and then some that care for you. You are a wonderful friend and a true inspiration! Keep your head up, as I know you will :)
Love you,
Michelle

I knew I shouldn't have read your blog at work! Now I am sitting here getting all teary! I am so happy for you and the good news- I am sure it is such a weight off... and the best part is you get to have a bunch of rowdy boys pretending they are still in college at your house tonight!!! I am assuming that you and the kids will be elsewhere! Have a great weekend- we are continuing to pray that things keep getting better and better every day!
