Relapse

My mom has been pretty low energy lately. Noticing that, I decided to move her appointment to visit Dr. John Greer at Vanderbilt, and luckily got TODAY!! My mom had a return scheduled visit with her doctor for mid-July, but something told me not to waste a minute.

Today's visit went something like this, first the brain MRI and then the office visit with Dr. Greer afterwards. Leslie was with my mom the entire time. The brain MRI showed that, sadly,her cancer had returned. Dr. Greer and my mom discussed her options.

My mom has decided to try a different treatment. She will be admitted into Vanderbilt on Tuesday, July 4th to begin treatment.
My mom and her doctor feel that a different type of chemotherapy may be effective.

At this time we do not know everything about the treatment. We will post again soon after the family researches, investigates and discusses the options. Of course, my mom always has the final say and we are doing as much research as we can at this time...find something we should know?----PLEASE send it on!

Many thanks for your prayers at this time.
