      We are not sure since there has been no Pet/ Ct scan. Many MRI's and nothing is showing unless you consider the beign tumor on her L-1 that will be treated with radiation. She is pretty depressed and slight disoriented frm the Oxy meds right now. Hopefully today they will "map her" and start radiation tommrow after they move her to Saint Lukes and out of the hospital. My only hope is that the doc start thinking positive instead of Negative ( the Onoc's) so that she has a reason to survive….

      Ok this is not Dian, it is me Bob. This has been tough. She takes a step forward and drops back. So here's where we are as of this moment. A "spot" was located at the C-1 that could be a med so an MRI is this morning. It could be the cause of her headaches or the cause beothers. No other majopr problems in her recovery but she is in the hospital and not in rehab. due to a low heartbeat that was adjusted via medicines…..I'll try and post as I gather info, but the Onc. says a treatment of Rad. should due it for the C-1 problem if it is. Damm….first her lung then her brain and now her spine? ….People (Cath) tha thave my phone can callme or text . I'll try and post her as well as on facebook….

      Thanks Charlie, and all of you here who keep me in your thoughts.

       

      My 5th bag is running right now, and I've been doing pretty well, and I feel like my nurses are getting it DOWN when it comes to managing my side effects.

      Mostly, I've had a horrible headache, aned a little nausea. Today I have an itchy rash, totally expected.

       

      I'm hanging in there!
