Small Positive

We went to the doctor at Cedar Sinai today and he allowed me to look at the comparison of the MRI's (Jeff didn't want to). It looks like the tumor has shrunk, but only in the back...the left side has grown...so...this current treatment has only affected some of the cancer cells, not all of them. The next step is to change his chemo med...they want him to have about 3-4 more treatments with the new chemo and then have another MRI to see where we are. They did say that the next 2 months are crucial...so...pray, pray, pray!!!! We are also still planning to check the CTCA in Illinois that I mentioned in my previous blog. The Cedar Sinai doc seemed okay with that idea too. CTCA is still checking our insurance and then they'll start requesting Jeff's records to review.

We are encouraged a little by today's appointment and as always will continue to trust our heavenly Father!!!!

Blessings!
