October NIH Visit

Hello everyone!  Just wanted to stop in and let you know that last week Missy had her eight week check up with the NIH and things went well!  There was no new growth of the tumor, which is always the best news.  They are watching the tumor closely to evaluate if she can continue her break from the IV treatment she was previously doing along with her chemo.   She will go back up in eight weeks to have another scan and they will go from there.  For now, the doctors felt good about the visit and told her just to stay with her current treatment plan.

Everything around here is going really well for our sweet Melissa.  She has started keeping Henry (her nephew) one day a week and they are both loving this schedule!  Henry loves his Aunt Mimi!  She is spending lots of time with family, friends and her boyfriend George and she is feeling good. 

Thank you all for your continued prayers and support.  They mean so much to us all.
