Being the demanding caretaker that I am my doctors office called ME with the MRI results but you surely knew that!! (I love the demanding part of me!! LOL) We had the test Friday night and our heart and mind KNEW we were praying to see 'no more mets and the ones that were there were stable'. We expected the great news in 3 months!!!!!! Update for you fine gals:

Marked improvement with no new brain mets
9 mm & 5 mm are now 2 mm!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I do not have the results in my hands so it seems so unreal. We were not expecting these results for a while. I will get the details of the test in a few days.

I think we got our miracle (1/2 of it!!) but I am so afraid to get false hope. It is what it is. And it IS better than what we went in with!! I am still in a fog. Thanks for the prayers girls, keep 'em coming!!

I feel like drinking Chocolate Martini's by the gallon!!>>Believe51
