Journal entry by Rose Reitz

Week 5 of my chemo treatments has been completed and things are going as well as we could have hoped for.  We met with Dr. Chang, my Medical Oncologist, and the tumors are definitely shrinking, which means the chemo treatments are working well.  The worst side effect so far has been that I get tired easily, but the nausea has been minimal.  Seven more treatments to go in Phase 1 and four more in Phase II and this part will be over.  Dr. Chang still believes that I have a 60% chance to be cancer free after the chemo has ended, but there will still be the surgeries after that.  Praise God that things have gone as well as they have and for his blessings!
