Day 34 – PM

We really didn’t hear much from the tests, but it appears they found another spot on her rib close to her spine. They don’t want to do anything with it yet other than monitor it.

She has learned how to roll over in bed now. We still put in the pillows, but she can do it herself. This is a big advancement. For those of you that don’t know, she is basically quadriplegic. She has to relearn just about everything. She does have feeling in her toes and fingers, so it’s just a matter of time for the swelling to decrease and have her regain mobility.

It seems for now they are talking about two weeks of physical therapy and then they will start the chemotherapy.

Please keep praying for strength for her. She really needs the help to get through the therapy.

Day 34

The night was kind to her… thank goodness 🙂 Becca is in good spirits this morning. The Dr is supposed to come in and give us most of the test results. I can’t tell you enough how at peace I feel about moving her to the Huntsman. I know that this is the place we are suppose to be.

I will share the results later…

Day 33

Becca is doing better this morning. We met with her new doctor who is a sarcoma expert last night and he was amazing. She has had a lot of tests today (he wants them done his way) just to make sure. So she may be a little tired today after all the scans.

Also, she probably won’t have any radiation, just straight chemo anmd physical therapy. Let’s keep praying for good test results and a speedy recovery. 🙂

Day 32 – Rebecca Takes Flight!

Guest blog…by Mark E.
I was able to see Rebecca, Randy and Anne off this morning and wanted to report to you all that everything went perfectly. Randy and I arrived early to “inspect” the jet and Rebecca and Anne arrived by ambulance. The Medevac guys transferred a smiling Rebecca to the tarmac and strapped her to a smaller gurney and 1-2-3 they had her in the jet.

They boarded the jet at approximately 9:30 and are currently enroute to Salt Lake City. Rebecca will be transported via ambulance to the Huntsman Cancer Center immediately upon their arrival around 12:30

MST.

Rebecca was happy, alert and just a tad nervous. The pilots, and other Medevac

personnel doted on her just like she was their own daughter and it was heart-warming to witness.

Their boys are in good hands for the next few days and will join the rest of the family in SLC on Saturday.
