Sorry everyone for this late post. I normally do it at zero dark thirty, but got caught up in something, I surfboard ran out of juice.
So here are the results:
We did get the results back sooner than anticipated. They were not as
good as we had hoped they would be. The largest mass has been reduced
in size dramatically, but there are still other smaller spots on her
spleen and thyroid area. She's been having tests all week long, blood
tests and so on. She has a sonogram scheduled for this Friday.
We
see the oncologist on Monday morning before noon. Then she sees some
other doctors and has more tests scheduled for next week. So were sort
of in a holding pattern. I took the entire information received by the
radiologist and send it to my friend Dr. Brad at UC Berkeley. I asked
him to look over the information and distill it for us. He did a great
job. He actually said that some of it was good news and he said that he
honestly did not expect everything to be cleared up right away. The
healing process does continue and he pointed out that the radiologist
that reads the report has to be very careful to cover his basis (protect
his butt). So they give you the most negative forecast.
We
continue to look forward to God's will in our lives and of course we
appreciate yours prayers on Harriet's behalf. The beat goes
on and we will have more information as the test results come in and we
get more information from the oncologist.
Maranatha,
Frank and Harriet
