Kristy's Story...Good News On New MRI

Kristy and Michael have just called me from Duke Hospital. Michael had his MRI early today and then they met with Dr. Friedman to go over the results. Finally some good news, the tumor has shrank some. They cannot tell if the tumor is still alive or if it is dead cells unless they do a biopsy. Doctor Friedman does not want to do a biopsy yet, he wants more time to watch it first. Michael is to continue on the Temadol chemotherapy and the Avastin treatments then do another MRI in eight weeks.

I want to give a special thank you to my friend Debbie. If she had not been able to get us hooked up with a radiologist so quickly we may have had a different result today. With Debbie's help and the quick actions of Eric and Dr. Mansur of Washington University, may have saved Michaels' life. A million thank yous to Debbie!
