Journal entry by Mayra Trevino Sotelo —
After an anxious Monday morning, Dr. Rana called us this afternoon and was happy to report the mass removed from Camila’s underarm shows no growth of cancer cells!! 🙌🏼
He did, however, inform us that he would be referring us to an infectious disease specialist as they still cannot determine the pathology of the growth. 😞 Apparently he noticed slight enlargement of several other lymph nodes during the procedure on Friday, which means that (whatever this is) is spreading. The infectious disease team should be able to do more testing and lay out a treatment plan for us, so we still have a little road ahead but so far it’s looking treatable.
We appreciate all the good energy and love and will update as we know more.
