Great News on Mom!

Mom does not need chemotherapy!

The pathology report said that except for the bladder, there was no cancer. Ten lymph nodes were removed and none had cancer. Since the cancer was in the bladder muscle but did not penetrate it, the oncologist said there was less than a 10%-15% chance of reoccurrence. Preventative chemotherapy would not have improved that chance; therefore, no chemo!

She will need to have a followup CT scan done in four months just to be sure her remaining organs are still cancer-free.

Thank you to everyone for your continued thoughts and prayers! God is good!
