Brain Mets Shrinking Yay, God!!
 

Yay! God!
Hooray, Penn Medicine!
Woo Hoo, Tykerb!

My MRI showed definite shrinkage in the two lesions. (Yay again!!)
In fact the smaller of the two is almost completely gone!! And the larger one looks smaller, and very unhappy. (Apparently, Gammaknife was a real buzz-kill for these tumors!!)

Even better than that...NO NEW LESIONS have popped up! That was my worst fear. But, either there weren't any other rogue cells floating around, or Tykerb is as good as it's reputation. I don't really care which...

I'M just SOOOOOO relieved! Overjoyed! Grateful!!

Thanks for all the prayers and positive energy (and good juju, Kelly!)...it all worked! The amount of love that pours out on this board never ceases to amaze me! Thanks to all of you for caring about me, and supporting me. I don't know what I'd do without you!!

Next MRI is in two months. Neck/chest/abdomen CT at the same time. Don't mean to be greedy, but I reeeaaallly hope those results are as good as these! And, in the meantime, I'm planning to let my mind rest...it needs a break from thinking about cancer, and scans.

Truly loving life tonight!
Love and hugs to all of you!
Denise

Hey Denise! WAY TO GO! I am kicking up my heels and just over the moon for you! I love that Tykerb is working for you! This is the kind of victory to savor!!! I couldn't be happier! BTW, I used to live in Philly (although it was many many moons ago when I was a tender you thing at age 23)....11th and Lombard! How is the old neighborhood? (Now that you are kicking A#* with Tykerb, maybe you can go into town and celebrate a little!!! XOXO
