Bone Scan
On Monday, September 12 my mom will have a bone scan to see if the cancer has traveled to her bones. This is the one test that hasn't been performed so Dr. Ben Jacob wants to do the test for "peace of mind". As my mom said, "No more bad news". This past week at chemo she was informed that they were currently out of the chemo medication that she has been using (I know, how can they run out of something like that--we ask ourselves that daily!). She had to sign a waiver so she could be given a different kind until hers comes in (not the doctors/hospitals fault--pharmaceutical companies!). They are hoping for a shipment to arrive this week. We know how well the medication is working for her so hopefully this week she can go back to her "routine". My mom continues to fight the daily battle. Some days are better than others--we cherish the good days. They help us through the "bad". Thank you for your continued love, faith, hope and prayers. Fingers crossed and prayers said that Monday's test results are good news only and her chemo schedule gets back on track!
