Hello to all. Mom finished chemo and we thought all looked good but things change. I just got an e-mail from Mom that I will copy below.
We went in to get the report of my PET scan this morning and the news is not as good as we hoped
the cancer in the liver and lungs has increased in size since the scan in March. At that time they thought it had decreased. So basically the chemo has failed. Instead of having the summer off, I will start a new chemo as soon as we return from Fl. On the 16th of June. The new one is called Alimta. My Dr. just got back from a cancer seminar last week and this medicine has been the second line Rx. for awhile but because of the good responses they have decided to make it the first line Rx. I believe it has been the choice for mesothelioma. Anyway, keep praying . We know Who is really in charge of this and I plan to be thankful regardless.
Love you all
Nancy
