Journal entry by alexis hopper —
Happy winter y'all. Mom had another CT scan done this week to check and see how everything is responding to treatment. Drum roll please..... it's doing SO good. Like her tumors and lymphnodes finally decided to run away and hide somewhere because most have just been vanishing this past month. The bone and pelvic lesions are much smaller and the huge lymphnodes in her chest area seem to be gone :) luckily its the weekly treament with annoying side affects that is working so well and she gets to continue...ha.
Besides her cute new hair style falling out again, her fingertips feeling like they might fall off, and her leg that is almost as big as she is...she's doing well! She has been extra cold lately, but hopefully her blood transfusion today will help. Send her warm hugs !
