Well, now that she is officially past the 1/2 way point in treatment we wanted to pass along a quick update to let you know how Cindy is doing thus far...

After experiencing some real struggles with her medications it looks like we are on solid footing moving forward.  Her chemo & radiation teams have adjusted her treatment plan to eliminate a drug that had been causing severe adverse reactions some of which included mouth sores, skin blisters, & worst of all an inability to eat/drink virtually anything.  It took a while to identify this drug as the cause of her symptoms & we are so glad to have that addressed. 

The Dr.'s have also told us that despite the physical pain & weight loss caused by her reaction to this drug, her progress with treatment remains on track. 

At this stage in treatment she is feeling a little stronger & has even noted a small increase in her appetite!  Right now, we're primarily focused on improving her white blood cell count, keeping her well hydrated & putting on some weight! 

While this hasn't been the easiest process she has kept her spirits high & continues to amaze those around her by maintaining her positive outlook!

Thank you all as always for your kind words & support!
