Update after latest chemo -still good news

Had chemo trial treatment yesterday. Dr. says everything still looks good. CA-125 is at 8, she can't feel any signs of growing tumors. I get my next CT scan in about a month.

Took the kids to Pagosa Springs last week. They had fun snow boarding while I read a book in the lodge (had headache and knee is not in great shape.)

My parents are now here visiting. Dad seems to have the flu and is down for now. Hopefully is on the uphill.

Kids are enjoying the "chill" time away from school. Jodi still has wrestling practice every morning, but has rest of day for play - no homework!

Wish everyone a great holiday and hope for a fun 2010!

Latest check-up

I saw the Dr. on Wednesday, and all is still good. My CA-125 is 9, and no sign of tumors.
Had cycle 12 of the Avastin trial. I found out there are 22 cycles (every 3rd week) instead of the 16 I had thought. So, I'll be having chemo until mid summer.
