Hot off the press from OHSU!

With clear scans at OHSU for the past 7 months, Rita will go home after this treatment and get an MRI in Bowling Green every month for the next 6 months -- if she stays clear, she'll then get a scan every 6 months.

We are so thankful that she is where she is today - so much different from this time last year.

Thanks so much for all of your well-wishes and support along the way!

One Year at OHSU

Today...my mom arrived in Portland, Oregon, and tomorrow she will start her last scheduled treatment. Friends and family, she is in remission!
This time last year, we were in an all-out panic trying to find my mom the right treatment after realizing the treatment at Vanderbilt was not working.
We were so very lucky to find Dr. Edward Neuwelt's BBBD treatment at Oregon Health and Science University (OHSU). My mom has done very well over the past year.
We all feel so blessed.

When we think about this time last year, we are just blown away by the generosity of people like Keith Graff, Stacey Irvin, Rita Silen, Libby Rowe, Joyce Cloutier, Sharon and Jim Bates and so many more people...thank you for the prayers and well wishes.

Please keep my mom in your prayers as she undergoes BBBD treatment over the next few days and travels back to Bowling Green, KY.

Please feel free to send my BRAVE mom BIG HUGS...she has climbed Mt. Hood!!!

smiles!!!!
