February 26th update

Our Oncologist in Kirkland called today.....and all the MRI scans on Nancy's lower back were now reviewed....and great news, the area showed stability and some level of progress. This means the Femara appears to be doing exactly what it should. He also cancelled Nancy's next infusion on March 8th. This infusion will be done soon after Nancy's surgery on March 10th. We will be heading to Kirkland probably on March 8th...and after surgery will be with our friends the Tomlins. Nancy is expected to be in Kirkland for around two weeks. Thanks to all for your support, it has been amazing!!

February 20th update

Sometimes we need to be careful what we ask for..... Nancy wanted to stay in Maui one more day. Alaska Airlines provided that with 10 plus hours at the airport, finally cancelling the flight, two more hours on a bus, back on the bus before seven Friday am, and then home. Yes we did get one more day, however......

We did miss our appointment in Kirkland Friday. Nancy will see the surgeon Monday (22nd) at 12:30. Mike will be with her. Hopefully a plan and dates for surgery can happen. Will update the blog next Tuesday.

February 17th update

We are stopping in Seattle on our way home for a doctor's appt Friday at 8:15am with the surgeon. We will most probably set the schedule for surgery at that meeting. We have been advised that Nancy will remain on Femara for now. There is still some evaluation going on regarding her lower back. We will be back in Spokane Friday afternoon. Thank you!

February12th update

Nancy is having a restful vacation. We found out today that all the files from Nancy's tests are now at the Oncologists. There is a meeting Tuesday to review. We should then be able to make a plan. So for now, no news. Happy Valentine's Day.....

February 8th update

Today both Oncologists had a phone conference. The MRI files have still not surfaced. They agree that Nancy should go on vacation.... so we leave tomorrow for Hawaii. While there, we should know the update and will schedule surgery. Thanks again for all the thoughts, prayers, and support. Mahalo and Aloha!

Nancy had an infusion today and it went smoothly.

We will not have news until Monday on Nancy's status. The last scans did not get to Dr Lonergan today....so we wait until Monday. And we will post as soon as we know. Have a good weekend and thanks for all the support, BC
