Tumor Update

Psalm 28:6-9   6 Blessed be the LORD, Because He has heard the voice of my supplications!  7 The LORD is my strength and my shield; My heart trusted in Him, and I am helped; Therefore my heart greatly rejoices, And with my song I will praise Him.  8 The LORD is their strength, And He is the saving refuge of His anointed.  9 Save Your people, And bless Your inheritance; Shepherd them also, And bear them up forever. 

I praise the Lord for His great mercy to me.  Praise Him with me.

Great News indeed: Just got off the phone with my DR. who just got off the phone with the radiologist who did my PET/CT on my brain to determine my tumor size and activity. The radiologist said that normal brain uptake of glucose is a factor between 8-12. With gliomas the normal uptake are factors up to 20. According to the radiologist, the uptake factor with my tumor was 0. This means that my tumor is dead! Or at least, non-detectably alive. This means that the tumor will not grow under these current conditions. So, the goal is to keep the tumor good and dead and decaying so that the body will continue to deal with dead cells in a detoxifying environment. My treatments will continue as we have been so we can continue to get the mass to shrink. This way it will relieve my seizure symptoms which I do still have. Praise the Lord Jesus! May He help me and heal me completely. Thanks for your prayers and loving support.
