My Story

Zaida (ZAY-da) turned 4 in September. We learned she has cancer on 10/31/07, after six very emotional days in the hospital. Two days later we learned it was ovarian cancer. More recently, the diagnosis is malignant mesothelioma of the peritoneum. Click on 'Read Story' below for donation information.

This is the middle of chemo week for Zaida and everything is going fine.  Good news!!  Zaida's CA-125 is down!  It is 36.3!  It was 55.9 a month ago.  "Normal" for this lab is 1-20.9, so we are getting closer!  We feel very relieved; the last number was worrysome!

We have a lot to say about our Washington D.C. trip this past week.  First, we must thank the Meso Foundation for the scholarship for us to go.  Thank you!!!  We are so glad we went.  We felt a lot of love and support.  I'll be writing up an essay about our trip in the next few days, so stay tuned.  I still need to finish unpacking!
