I went in for chemo today (so I thought).

After some disucussion with the oncologist, it was determined that I might be a good candidate for a clinical trial. This trial involves no chemo (yay!)

The basis of the treatment involves building up ones own immune system, making it strong enough to fight the cancer on its own. I will be meeting with the specialist on Tuesday, April 2nd to learn more about this procedure.

As for now, I'm just going to enjoy these next few days.

  2. We have a sister in our ward who had Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma also about a year ago. She had chemo treatment, and she was also on a high nutrition regiment that helped her fight the cancer. She is doing very well now. You will make it. Love to you both, and the family.

    Love,
    Dennis & May
