Took Mom today for blood work, cat scan and to see her Dr. concerning her
liver cancer and sphere beads that was used. On this second treatment of the
right lobe it looked good But the left lobe that was treated in January has
a couple of new ones growing. Also the small third lobe has one. He is going
to talk to the oncologist and see what he thinks they should do, another
treatment with the spheres or maybe go with chemo pills for now. He said he
doesn't want to wait too long but doesn't want to do it too soon either. He
said we should here from them within the next 6 weeks as to what they will
do next. She feels fine at this point no problems so guess we just wait and
see. Will update later when I have more information. Nothing new with
husband except low white blood count last time so reduced dosage of chemo.
If it follows past behavior this Wednesday he should be okay for full
strength dose.About all I have for now.

Hello Gloria,
Thanks for the update.
Re: Your mother: primary liver cancer - Well, I'm glad she's got a reprieve.
What's your mother do with her time?  Flower garden? Knitting?
Visiting with grandchildren?  Lounging by the pool?
Give us a picture, Luv.
Spring's finally springing up here; summer's coming. :)

Husband - colon cancer spread to the lungs. (to remind the readers)
How are you holding up, Gloria?
I think of you often and hope you have time to take care of yourself.
Best,
J
