Sometimes I think that "good news" isn't a term in our vocabulary unless it falls along side the "good news / bad news" heading. And I keep hearing that God does answer all of our prayers, just that it's not always the answer that we're looking for. Well, I am starting to think that His sense of humor could use a little working on!!
Dr. Knight gave us the news last Friday and we met with him yesterday. Good news is: the CT scans of Jess' neck, abdomen and pelvis showed no change. Bad news is: the original mass in her chest has grown. Again. While on chemo. The shoe dropped.
As you know, we still haven't found a donor for Jessica. And now we know that the Navelbine and Rituxan have stopped working. We knew this day would come sooner or later. Once again, hoping for later.... Chemos from the past could be in her future but Dr. Knight wants us to confer with our guy in Cleveland, Dr. Pohlman, for any other thoughts. We've discussed a few options and once we take the trip we'll update the scoop. It's not set up yet, but we're hoping to see him by next week. (Note: Appointment is set for Tuesday, April 14th)
So dear Friends....as always, we accept prayers from all faiths!! Please keep them coming, and God---I sure hope we're on the same page this time!!! ....sooner please.....
