Keith's mom had a PET (full-body) scan done last Monday to see how the cancer is reacting to the chemo treatments that she has been having for the past three months. We were very happy to hear that her doctor told her that her cancer markers are down again....to 4.5!! That means that her markers are near the "normal" number now. Also, the doctor told her that the scan showed no cancer cells in her liver!! This is wonderful news! It doesn't necessarily mean that the cancer is completely gone (because cancer cells can "hide") but it does mean that the chemo treatments that she has had are helping to kill the cancer cells in her body. Praise God!!
The doctor still wants her to continue her every-two-week chemo regimine, but our hope is that after a few more months of that, she will be able to cut back or even stop completely.
Thank you for all of your continued thoughts and prayers! They are very much appreciated!
