Fight Fight Fight

First I want the thank everyone for praying for me.  I get my next chemo March 2nd.  Even though I get to do it at home now with a pump it is harder then going into the hospital.  Wow when the devil attacks he attacks.  I will not give up hope or stop having faith ever.  I am fighting not only for my children and my family but for all the people who lost their fight.  My Dr. at Mayo said that this is something that will never go away and that they are trying to prolong my life as long as possible but I know God heal and heals completely!  That is what I am holding on too.  It has been very frustrating but the support around me wont let me give up.  I am feeling a little better today after getting finished last Sunday.  I think I might be able to eat today so pray for that!  Thank you again and I love you all. 

FEB. 17, 2012---2nd trip to Mayo

Today is Friday. We (Lisa, mom, Steve and myself) flew to Rochester on Wed.  The purpose of this trip was to figure out what the next step is.  Lisa's CA 19-9 number went up to 3209.  Her local doctor wasn't sure what to do, so Mayo was the answer.  Lisa met with her Mayo doctor on Thursday.  He said that there was cancer in her abdominal wall. He said that her number didn't concern him, but it was time for a modified chemo treatment.  He suggested the same treatment as before, minus one of the drugs.  This was going to be done through a pump which would be done at home.  Friday morning, Lisa did a chemo treatment at Mayo. It began with 3 hours of treatment at Mayo, and will continue for an additional 46 hrs after that.  She will fly home with a pump attached to her port, to finish the treatment.  She will do a 2nd treatment in 2 weeks, and then 2 weeks later, her blood level's/number will be tested.  So..we are flying home Sat. morning. This has been an eye opening experience for sure!  We are confident that the decision to come here was the best one!  The people at Mayo are amazing.  Thank you God for your guidance and your healing power!

After Chemo

It has been 5 days that I have been home.  I have been fighting bad headaches!  They are better today.  I think when you go through something like this your try to block it out because it is so hard and bad but I remember now how bad it really is.  I am trying to make it not so bad for my girls.  Once again I have had great support just ready for this to be over once again.  I know God didn't heal me the first time for me to not beat this again.  I know I have helped a bunch of people that are going through this but I am tired.  I guess I am just keeping it real.  I am not sure how many more I have to do but I do know I am going to try not to focus on the treatments and focus on the victory trips!!!!!! Thank you for all the prayers and support.
