"Cheers!" to a good life!!
The visit on Monday, 9/12 to my neuro-oncologist at the Duke Brain Tumor Center in North Carolina yielded great news! She agreed with my St. Louis oncologist that my MRI looks stable and unchanged from 2 months ago. Yippee!!
The routine continues....MRI in 2 months, send the CD to Duke for analysis. Two months after that, early January, another MRI. That one will be hand carried with me for my 4-month follow up. If all goes well in the next 4 months, I will 'graduate' to a 3 month MRI schedule and a 6 month follow up schedule with Duke.
She also consented for me to have my port removed!! I think that is a great sign that we are on the path to total healing! Needless to say, I walked out of there feeling so great and so, so blessed. Who can not help but believe that God is doing wonders in our lives, when we get such great news!
All of your prayers continue to carry me every day. It is such a fabulous feeling to know that your thoughtfulness and steadfast commitment to praying has brought me to 22-months of faith-filled healing and life! My cup of gratitude is over-flowing.
I am a 'Believer'! Are you?
Peace and love,

Latest MRI Update
Our GOD has given me the best gift....living each day to be a witness to his saving grace.
Had a routine MRI last Thursday. I haven't been worried about the results, because I know in my heart that I have been healed. Went to see my medical oncologist today, and he confirmed that all is well....the MRI indicates all is stable, no sign of any regrowth. The official narrative states "the reconstruction site remains unchanged!" My doctor went as far to say "I think you may just be the one to beat this cancer!" I said, "Of course I am....actually, I already have!" How about for fabulous news???
He asked how I've been feeling....told him I'm feeling great. He asked if I'm tired...I told him I'm a menopausal women....I don't sleep much! He asked about headaches....I told him I have them occasionally, no more often than anyone else does. I did tell him that I have been having this twitching going on in my left eye, wondering if this is a sign of anything. He said, "that wouldn't be a sign of the cancer. In the Chinese culture (you guessed it...he's Chinese), a twitch in the left eye is a sign of fortune!" My comment to that was, I will take all of the fortune I can get! So all-in-all....it was a great day of fabulous news!
I visit my Duke doctor on Monday, Sept.12th. I expect only good news there as well. If Dr. Desjardins says she doesn't see any treatment in the foreseeable future, I should be able to have my port removed. That would just make my day....again!
Thank you everyone for your continued prayers and support. This miracle we are witnessing is because of the undeniable power of prayer and God's healing hands. We have asked and we have received....how much more cool can that possibly be?
I do ask for your continued prayers as we move along in this journey of life. Please know that I pray for all of you as well, that God will bless you as he has blessed me.
