Hema had a brain CT scan with contrast yesterday.The report came in today.The lesion in the brain has calcified.The Onc said it is a good report.She had her last(?) Navlbin yesterday and Herceptin with Navelbin on the 11th.The Onc;s next appointment is not within the 3 weeks cycle but nearly 5 weeks away.I presume that it means the 3rd cycle of Chemo stops.I blend her food and give it to her and she is also able to walk with some support.
On my last posts subject the Onc said WBR has strange side effects and it cannot be predicted when it will show and how long it will last.Only with a view to eliminate fresh brain mets the CT scan was bone.It implies that her problems are side effects of the WBR.Wishing and praying for all of you

Im glad you got a good report, and it sounds like she is getting stronger, able to walk with some help. Hopefully these side effects go away very soon. Sending lots of prayers.

I am glad Hema is getting stronger day by day. Tell her to keep up the good work and to take short walks or a few stretching exercises whenever she can. That will improve her overall strength and ability to walk more in the future.
Good health to both of you.

Hema is so lucky to have such a wonderful husband to give her such good care. I hope she is blessed with a rapid recovery and good health.
