Journal entry by Lauren Paffrath

Hi all! I know it’s been quite sometime since my last entry and I apologize. Dinah is doing exceptionally well! Early this month she had scans done. A few weeks later she went in for the reading. They told her that all of her tumors have either reduced in size or disappeared completely!! As you can imagine Dinah was baffled and had to have them reiterate that all is well and the treatments have been working in a way that was not expected. This news couldn’t be better and we are all so joyful and full of relief that she is well for the time being. After speaking with the dr.s they decided that she would complete one more round of chemo (3 treatments, she’s done one already and will have 2 more throughout the next month or so), then she will go on a daily maintenance chemo pill.

More exciting news, her hair has begun to grow back and I even had to do a little cleanup around the ears and neckline. She is looking and feeling better than she has in a very long time.

Thank you for your continued thoughts and prayers. I will keep you posted if anything changes down the line but we are holding onto this great news and feeling for dear life.
Dinah is excited to get back to life. ❤️
