    Thank you everyone for your prayers. We are dealing with so much right now -besides this cancer thing. I feel I am carrying the weight of the world. I appreciate your thoughts and will pray for you too.

    Thanks Lynn. I really recognise that "weight of the world" feeling. That feeling is a real reminder to DO LESS, and remember that Jesus said "come to me"....God bless you and your family. XX Susanna

    As a follow-up to the liver ablation, I'm having an MRI tomorrow to see what the burned tumors look like. If everything looks good and there's no new growth, I'll stay on my current chemo - TDM1. If not, my oncologist would like me to go on another clinical trial. So, I'm praying that God directs my treatment for His Will and for the Grace to accept His Will. TDM1 has been fairly easy to tolerate so I wouldn't mind staying on it, but it's in His Hands. Please continue to keep me and my family in your prayers. Thank you!

    So let me see if I can explain the situation. The MRI doesn't seem to show "new" tumors but the tumor that was ablated has an area on its rim that may or may not be viable (live). So while the oncologist waits for another radiologist to read the scan I'm staying on the current chemo. Further decisions will be made based on the other radiologist's reading. Everything ran so late that I couldn't get chemo today so I go back in the am for treatment. Praise God for this good report! Thanks for all the prayers - please carry on!

    Maybe I jumped the gun, apparently the bone scan results were more like, probably not mets, probably is degeneration, but we need an MRI to know for sure - scheduled for 11/20, next Wed, so please keep me in your prayers.

    Just found out that my oncologist is on leave until December 16th. I have no idea why or what this means for my treatment plan. So please keep her in your prayers, as well as guidance regarding my treatment. His Will Be Done!

    God bless you MsRockyG. This is a great site with amazing people. St. Peregrine pray for us. And don't forget about St. Agatha (of Sicily), patron saint of breast cancer. St. Agatha, pray for us.
