Journal entry by Tiffany Allnutt —
Sorry it has been a while since updating everyone. Summer was calm and quiet. Mom completed her BCG treatments- she handled them like a champ! She went in for another biopsy afterwards and there weren't any active cells. The next follow up showed a few spots but the doc is certain they're from the treatment. We are back here today for another procedure to biopsy those spots and to collect samples from random areas of the bladder. We got to talk to the doc for a while before they took her back and she got some clarification on some questions but still feel good about a positive outcome.
The doc came out to speak with Dad and I and he informed us that he found another tumor. He removed it and took some other samples. Now we wait for the pathology results.
After today she will have a treatment once a week for 3 weeks every 3 months. Then she will get checked every 6 months for a few years.
The cancer fight continues but she is a warrior! Please keep her in your prayers.
