      NED.

      Lungs, back, brain all look good after one round of IL-2.  Still recovering from the stroke and radiation and still experiencing some pain, nausea and fatigue, but at the moment Dian appears to be a complete responder to IL-2.  I'm wishing she dances with NED forever and has a quick recovery from all the rest.

          OMG doing a happy dance!!!!!

          Please please please have a durable remission…..  If anyone can do it, you can.  I know because you have creepy crawly disease like I did, may it be forever gone.  Now starts the clock to 30 months NED, after that ?!!!!!  Also continue to have a successful recovery.  I would hate you had to pay such a terrible price only for it to come back.

          Keep on kicking butt!

          Aloha,

                I received an email from Dian's very dear friend: This is Bob's most recent post:

                "Pet/Ct and mri results where read to us… essentially it is the four mets on the brain to be removed via gamma knife on Weds., 1 small mets on her lung that will be treated via single body radiation treatment ( 5-7 doses) afterwards( she was already marked for this, and a wait and watch on the tumor on her L-1 that has strunk 50% and can be treated via the SBRT( as above) at a later date. SOooooo on to Wednesday and a long gamma knife surgery….more later…"

                Dian needs your prayers.
