Quick Update

Mom will go Friday to talk to her oncologist about treatment options. It's been determined, I believe by the radiologist and Dr. Sato (in PA), that they don't want to risk doing any more chemoembolization treatments, and it seems they are looking at trying her on an immune therapy called Keytruda (or PD-1). Interestingly enough, this seems to be the latest thing people are trying and her oncologist happens to be leading the trials for this drug. They will know quickly, approximately within a month, how her body is responding to it. She will also go Monday to see Dr. Reisman again and discuss options there. As soon as her leg swelling goes away, she will be able to start her IV vitamin therapy again at his office, which she feels like was starting to help her gain energy and is eager to begin again. Please pray for her swelling, clarity on the direction she will take next, and her body to gain strength again quickly. Tomorrow is her massage, and I'm so excited for her! She is really looking forward to it! Again, our apologies to those who have tried to post comments. We can't figure out why most of them are not working, so if anyone has advice on how to fix the problem, please email any of us and let us know!
