Dear Friends of MoG, I have an update on my daughter's metastatic breast cancer diagnosis. She has been through a grueling regime of high powered chemo and just finished .Here is part of her latest communication with me ....a very happy email with this info included : "My oncologist is putting me on a new med (in addition to other stuff I'm already on) plus the possibility of doing a lumpectomy down the line. We're still going to treat this as Stage 4 but she thinks that there's no reason I can't get a cancer-free scan in the near future and possibly even beat it in the next few years! MAYBE. But if I stay stable, worst case is me taking oral meds for the long term. NOT the end of the world Her plan is to keep me on the 3 week apart infusions for a year and, if nothing has progressed in that time, continue on just oral meds. And IF, after a few years and my scans show nothing, we can even talk about getting me off the oral meds! Anyway, I feel more hopeful than I have in long while and am physically feeling fantastic. Energy, appetite back, strong etc" I'm posting this as a hopeful sign for anyone of you.. or anyone in your family...who gets a devastating diagnosis like Jayne's ... with the help of Our Lady....tons of prayers from folks like you.... and modern medicine ...life CAN continue! The way is still "bumpy"...but... so far ...we are happily hopeful! Thank you all for your heartfelt prayers!!
