I had a CT Scan last Tues., June 14. I FINALLY got the results today (my oncologist was on vacation last week), and it’s not good. There is “progression” in the cancer in the liver, the phone nurse said. What that means is that the tumors have grown. Also, they now see cancer in my lungs. I don’t know exactly what, the sizes of tumors, etc. My oncologist will call me tonight to discuss this with me; I also have an appointment with her on Friday. According to the nurse, Dr. Funky Glasses isn’t sure where to go from here.
I am, understandably, devastated.

Judy – I’m so, so sorry you have to go through this. I’m going with Kris when she says that there are other treatment and procedures to go with. There is another site out ther Melanoma Mom who is having IL-2 treatments for her liver and pancreas with success – tumors shrinking etc. I’m not sure what type of cancer it is – if it is the same as the melanoma or not, but I say it’s worth looking into. Here is her site http://melanomamom.blogspot.com/search?updated-min=2011-01-01T00%3A00%3A00-05%3A00&updated-max=2012-01-01T00%3A00%3A00-05%3A00&max-results=39. Try to stay strong, take good care of your self – put yourself first for a while. Sleep, eat, and work when you feel like doing so and save your energy for your fight. Thoughts and prayers as always.

Electronic hugs from our family to you Judy. We will be praying that everything goes well. Be strong.
