Hattie and I met with her doctors yesterday to discuss the results from her latest full body PET/CT scan. There has been some progression. All the tumor spots in the bone have remained stable except for one spot on her right hip and one on her left hip that both slightly grew. The tumor in her neck has remained the same size and looks stable. The tumors in both her lungs remain stable, but there are new multiple little spots in both lungs now. These spots are so small that the doctors can't measure them on the scans at this point. Our next course of action is to change Hattie's systemic chemo(Votrient/Pauzapanib) to another called Everolimus in hopes that it will treat her cancer better. To look on the bright side, it looks like Hattie's cancer has slowed down, but is still fighting to stay alive in her. This is going to be a long fight that could plague Hattie for the rest of her life, but I know we can beat this with God's help. Thank you all for your prayers.
