Following the radiosurgery on the tumor in her lung, Kimberlyn had a CT scan and a bone scan. Results show the radiosurgery shrunk the lung tumor. Only a very small spot remains in her lung. The scan did show a new tumor in her liver. Doctor says it is very small. We think that maybe due to the fact that she went without chemo for a couple of months while dealing with her lung. Plans for now are to continue her maintenance chemo and have a PET scan in 3 months.

The last time I shared, Kimberlyn was recovering from complications after fiducial markers were placed around the tumor in her lung. That was a difficult time for her but she recovered and finally started radiation a little over a week ago.

So last Monday, Kimberlyn went in for day-surgery, for what should have been about a 30 minute procedure. Expectations were for her to go home the same day.

After a couple of weeks of tests, scans, and procedures, Kimberlyn met with her oncologist this morning and received some really great news!

This morning, Kimberlyn met with the radiation team at Baylor to discuss starting radiation treatments for the primary tumor.

Kimberlyn called her oncologist this morning for clarification and more details concerning the results of her latest CT scans.

Please continue to pray for my precious wife. She hasn't felt well these last couple of weeks. Thanks so much for you care and concern over this past year and a half.

Good afternoon. Apologies that is has been a while since we've sent out an update. Thankfully, over the past 6 months or so, things have been as close to normal as we could expect.

Unfortunately, it looks like Kimberlyn will need to have the chemo port removed. If so, she would continue her maintenance chemo treatment in pill-form.

Kimberlyn just finished her last 'big' treatment and moves on to maintenance starting in a few weeks. She'll have a pet scan in a few weeks to see where she is. It is our prayer that the cancer is completely gone, but that is in God's hands. It has been a rough 6 months but God has protected her.
