GOOD NEWS!


I'm finally better enough to let all you know that my tumor is shrinking! Yep that's right...shrinking! i went in for round 7 of chemo this past Monday. i talked to my doctor to see if she had heard anything about my last CT scan. the last time i talked to her she said she couldn't tell if my tumor was smaller or bigger cause she had nothing to compare it too. i told her we had the old scans so she might be able to compare. we did that and the radiologist said my tumor is smaller! FINALLY i know where i stand!

they took out my pic line cause it wasn't working anymore. they had to poke me and put an IV in my hand so i can get my chemo. that was not fun at all! when they told me that they had to take out my PIC line i was scared that it might hurt cause they were gonna just pull it out! i was like oh heck no! BLOOD everywhere!!! but that was not the case =) no blood was spilled.

on another note...my hair looks like its growing back. i have some kind of fuzz so that's cool. my cousin Jr stopped by and wanted to see and he said i looked tough. hahaha i am pretty bad ass so yeah i gots to look the part if I'm gonna act the part!

CT results tomorrow

Tomorrow i get my results for last Thursdays CT results. I'm really scared... i don't feel any different. still have no pain, don't feel any worse, everything seems normal. i think that's what scares me the most. the fact that i feel fine scares the hell out of me. before all this crap started i felt fine! so i really don't know what to feel. I'm still keeping my head up and hope for the best but still. Dr. Chen thinks I'm doing great. with her thinking that i think maybe just maybe everything will be fine but I'm still skeptical. well i guess we'll find out tomorrow. keep your fingers cross!
