hi all
well as you know already mum has to have 6 months of abvd for hodgkins lymphoma stage 2b with a large chest tumour
tomorrow she has her 6th session which is her now half way through
she went for her usual check up and blood tests etc today, and got the results of her recent PET scan- great news! the chemo is working and the doctors said with a big smile that they were "very pleased" with mums scan results. so she is now fingers crossed on the road to recovery!!!!
it makes such a difference for mum it gives her such a boost now she knows it is all worth while
and after tomorrow we are counting down til the end from half way :D three months to go (fingers crossed)
its nice to know everything is going to plan and it has really made us smile we are all so happy
maybe there is sunshine after the rain after all
lots of love

AWESOME NEWS Kerri! Absolutely it gives her a boost, which is EVERYTHING right now. That's just the best news. You have made my day.
When we got an MRI result back on my husband and his lesions and bone compromise was all gone, and "remarkably" they couldn't even find previous evidence that it existed ("unusual"), My husband and I realized, only at that moment, that we had been holding our breath for about 10 months! The realization of the "relief" was something we spent some time talking about as we thought we were "doing fine" with it all (as fine as you can when you have cancer). Clearly we were not doing quite as fine as we thought. :) I can fully appreciate the boost!!!!
