meara, that's a lot! I'm hoping for a good outcome for your mom.
She just... she just did the math.

I got an email from the legal assistant of my lawyer. Workers comp is offering a settlement but my lawyer is out of the office through next week so I won't meet with her until June 5th to talk about it.
We have the funeral today and M wanted to be a the visitation as long as possible but we ended up going to the location of the funeral...which is like 20 mins away, realized the mistake and are now almost to the funeral home. We got there to the funeral home. Almost got t boned by a tow truck running through a red when we were trying to turn left with the light we had.
M decided not to stay as long as I thought he would...which is really good because I was feeling uncomfortable. I saw two men with 3 Percenter tattoos. One was on the back of his hand and another on a guy's fore arm.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Dr. Hendifar took us through the scan. Nothing dramatic but he was pleased with the results.
No new tumors or growth. It's early in this process and the results take time but the bigger tumors that he measured did look smaller.
Not definitive. It depends on where you measure them. But one that was 36mm looked more like 34. That was true with several nodes. Slightly smaller.
Certainly nothing was bigger.
One mass looked different in composition as if the drugs were affecting it. (It starves the cells.)
The effects should be more pronounced if it continues to work and the next scan is late July.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.
Slightly smaller. Certainly nothing was bigger.
Tentative "Yay!"
Sounds better than the results from the previous regimen, anyway, so that's good.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Continuing to keep fingers crossed!!

David, that sounds good for this early in the treatment, especially compared to the previous treatment.
