I just had my three month appointment with my gynecologic oncology doc last Thursday. I am thankful and happy to report that all of my numbers and indications are still good. Because ovarian cancer has such a high rate of recurrence I have talked with my doc and we have decided to increase my maintenance drug  (Zejula-used to help prevent or delay recurrence) from 100 mg to 200 mg. I will begin taking the increased dose on Friday. I covet your prayers that my body will be able to tolerate the increased dose without debilitating side effects.

I continue to be so very grateful for all you…for your support, your prayers, etc. as I have journeyed through and continue to journey through this whole process.  As I go into Thanksgiving tomorrow you all are at the top of my “Thankful For” list.

I would also like to ask for your prayers for a friend of mine who has had a recurrence of ovarian cancer after an 8 year hiatus. She has undergone surgery and 2 rounds of chemo so far. 

I am still holding on tight to my motto, “God’s Got This”! He has proven over and over to be faithful in the good and the bad. He never promised that life would be easy, just that He would be with us always. 

Praying for a joyous and very thankful holiday for you and your loved ones. We have lots to be thankful for!

Thanks again for your care and your prayers on my behalf this past year.

Cherie
