Journal entry by Sherry Lee —
Hi, everyone...........last Thursday, the 15th we got a solid update on my prognosis - so here goes.....after surgery on July 22nd when the surgeon removed the tumor, along with the lower lobe of my right lung, it was found that only 40% of the tumor was destroyed by the immunotherapy......also the tumor had grown from its first identification to the surgery date from 4.5cm to +6cm. Both the surgeon and the chemotherapy doctor feel it would be best to have me go through chemo - four 3 week sessions. The chemo is for precautionary measures. At the end of the sessions, another series of tests will be performed to find results. More immunotherapy may be needed down the road...............So, please continue to pray for complete healing. .............Blessings to you all, Love, Jim
