Carolyn, I can only say that I understand your sadness about having your heart disappointed with a quest that did work out the way we dreamed it to. Your desire for this trial to become a reality and then a broken heart for a third time, that I can not even imagine. Do not give up your dream, keep it with you for the day that it can become a reality.

For now you will work with your doctor for the next course of action. I am praying for the same things you are, Carolyn. Hoping that the scans show no progression and allow you the time to further research more options. I am sorry that you are so disappointed but please keep the faith. Part of me is sad for you too to hear of this update on the trial but there will be something worth dreaming about soon. You have been in my thoughts and will remain there as you search for your answer.

And Carolyn, goodnight Sweetie, more pleasant dreams are in your future.>>Believe51
