Becca is doing well today. She is resting and trying to get her strength up. We should know more tomorrow as to what therapy they will start. The doctors will be meeting on Friday to discuss everything together and firgure out a treatment schedule. Keep praying and the faith, she will be healed.

Sorry for the late post. Not much is going on other than a MRI this morning.  She just needs to rest and keep doing the therapy.

So what do we have behind curtain #1?

Get out your pens: chongrogenic (it is not chondrogenic you google fans) chongrogenic osteoblastic sarcoma. It’s a level two tumor. Good luck finding it, it’s not out there. It’s a very rare tumor that is low-medium grade and malignant. So where does that leave us? Not sure yet other than the doctors are compiling information from library’s that specialize in cancer. The good news is it’s a very slow cancer and can be treated. From what we know they will wait a while (weeks) for Becca to get better and more strength before they start the treatments. It should be radiation, but chemo is not out yet.

So, that leaves curtain #2… a separate issue for now, a type of demyelination inflammation. MS is in this same group. MS can usually only be determined after multiple breakouts. This could be a one time issue, or it could happen several times. Only time will tell on this one. The treatment for this has been done with the steroids and blood therapy.

So, we will get more results from the MRI from tonight and the one of her head that will be done in the morning probably on Monday. But the current thing we are doing is working on getting her strength back and working with psychical therapy. We have to keep her spirits high and make her want to get better. The good news is we are talking about Becca. I know she has a huge team behind her and I know she can do it.

Thank you all so much and please keep praying… we are hoping the tumor hasn’t had a chance to spread yet and that she will get better quickly. We love you all!

Well, not much to update yet. They are going to do an MRI and Ultrasound sometime today. It seems the type of tumor she has is so rare everyone is trying to get a hold on this. They say for now it’s a level two cancer tumor, but it’s not confirmed.  We should know more in the morning.

Ok, so how are we?  Good. The Lord has us in His hands.  We aren’t alone in this at all. I know the word ‘frustration’ has come up a lot and it’s ok. We are just trying to take this one day at a time. Keep praying for a miracle, I know we will see one 🙂

You know, just when I thought we were going in the right direction… the oncologist visited us late today. We thought they were going to bring us the ‘final results’ of the tumor in her tail bone. Initial reports had come back that they thought it was benign. However, today they shared that they think it may be cancerous and might have to start radiation therapy in the next couple of days. They have sent (yet again) another sample to the Mayo Clinic for additional information. Granted, they are as frustrated as us, but I have to tell you, this is crazy. They are saying that the inflammation may not be MS again that it might be related to the tumor that was in her tail bone. Becca was also having a difficult day as they removed the line in her femoral artery. It bled a lot today as they have been giving her drugs with the blood treatments to keep it from clotting. She was also in a bit of pain from her incisions. Don’t get me wrong, she is still in good spirits, it’s just another one of those challenging days. We were looking forward to starting therapy on Monday.

So, where do we stand? In need of prayers. We will take this full force again, as I know she will be ok.
