Wow, we realized we are almost halfway through Sharron’s treatment cycles, as next week is #9 and that will be 3 of 6 cycles complete. It is satisfying to see marked improvements over the last couple of months. We’re so happy (as we’re sure all of you are too) to generate such glowing reports each week!
There is not much to write about for Week 8 and no major setbacks. She had a small treatment on Friday and continued to work on her physical therapy. Sharron did seem to lose a pound or two, which was a bit discouraging considering she’s been diligent about eating and trying to pack on the pounds. Her body must be working so hard to fight those bad cells that it is burning the fuel we put into it! Here’s to hoping next week her weight will go back up again.
