Cycle 8-Postponed

Peter, January 22, 2024January 22, 2024

Unfortunately, I developed a cough and a temperature over the last few days, and it didn’t go away in time for today’s (Monday’s) chemo session. I’ve tested covid-negative twice during this period, so we don’t think it’s that.

I just wanted to let you guys know in case you were fervently praying for the chemotherapy to go well… I could ask you to pray next week. 🙂

I’ve always been concerned something could postpone a cycle. I usually mask up and keep my self distant, but apparently I got a bug somewhere.

I’ll try and rest up and get healthy enough for next week.

CT Scan

Last week we got to meet with the oncologist and review the CT scan. It was very helpful. We looked at the images, and even from a layperson’s point of view, the tumor does appear to have decreased in size.

My oncologist said that everything is going well and is the blueprint for how things should go. I have minimal/manageable side effects to the chemo, and it seems to be having an effect on the tumor.

My marker numbers continue to decline (that’s good) on the two most-watched blood reports.

In my oncologist’s own words, “I have no bad news for you, Peter”.

So praise God for all that.

Resting

Okay, I’m going to rest up and get healthier so I can be ready for next week. Thanks for your support and for following.

It’s not always great news. My last three blood tests have shown that there has been a slight uptick in my cancer markers, indicating my cancer is progressing (growing). Although this is a bit disheartening, my doctor reminded me that there has been a very significant decrease in the cancer…

I appreciate each holiday and any day more since my diagnosis. I am very thankful for my life, and although more definitive results will be my PET scan after a few more chemotherapy cycles, I’m very grateful that the reports indicate the treatment has been effective so far. Please pray…

Easter 2025

Happy Easter! So much has been going on, and much of it has been answers to prayer…  My friend’s message I’d like to share something special. My dear friend shared her own medical journey on Good Friday. I identified so much with what she was saying. I appreciated her honesty….
