A second opinion...

Well, tomorrow we are heading to Duke University in Durham, NC. The doctors at Vanderbilt discovered to white masses on my brain. They are unsure of what they are, or how to treat the issue. I've still been having dizzy spells and pain. Because the Vandy doctors wanted to continue chemo without really exploring these problems, we've decided on Duke for a second opinion.

Mom and I leave Monday morning and will fly to Raleigh-Durham. My appointments are on Tuesday and Wednesday and, if all goes well, we will head back on Thursday. Thank you all so much for your continued prayers and support!

A New Year

I can't believe it's been two months since I posted!

I'm feeling a little better. I spent most of November and December in and out of the hospital, but I feel lots better now. I go back on Wednesday of next week for a spinal tap and MRI and then go again Friday to see the doctor. Then, they'll let me know what the plan is for chemo.

I've had a months break and its been nice! Thanksgiving I wasn't feeling well, and ended up in the hospital, but Christmas was great with my family and Ryan's. I hope you all had great holiday's too!

Going into the new year means a new beginning! I don't know what God has planned for the year ahead, but I know it will only get better from here! I'm looking forward to Natalie's wedding, planning for mine, getting back to El Salvador and staying busy with fund raising for Starfish.
