The results of Pat's PET scan came back.  No other organ involvement.  Good news for sure.  Now we must wait again.  There will be a CT scan tomorrow to rule out brain involvement.  The doctor tells Pat that the kind of cancer she has "likes to migrate to the brain."  We are again on pins and needles; all this waiting is torturous.

She began her chemo today, an eight hour session, combined with her first dose of radiation therapy.  It will be a rough night for her.  Tomorrow she will receive another two hour chemo treatment along with the daily radiation.

The consult this morning was loaded with information.  The doctor told her that if they were not VERY aggressive, her lung is in danger of collapsing due to the size of the mass that now is blocking air flow to her right lung.

Some of you suggested viewing the Netflix, "Gersom Miracle" which I did today.  I wonder...if this  has such a high success rate WHY are we, the most powerful nation on earth, not using it???  Something as simple as changing your diet cures you of all that ails you and prevents even the common cold.  I need to do more reading.  If anyone reading this has used this diet or knows anyone that was cured of cancer by following it, please contact me.

I am trying to fix the comment link on this blog as many of you have tried to leave messages for Pat.  Until I can figure out how to do that please send me an email that I can print out for her to:
