Exciting News :-)

Hello everyone! I am typing this with a smiling face. I saw Dr. Amanze today and she said I will finish this cycle a week from today and then take a break from the chemo. I am so happy. We'll do scans in January, so that means I'll get at least a 2 month break. I can't tell you how happy I am right now. She continues to say that the goal of the chemo is to make sure there is no new growth. If we get shrinkage on the tumor, then that is great...but the goal is to have no new growth. She told me we have options but she doesn't want to ware my body out. She is wonderful. You all know how much I appreciated Dr. Nguyen, and I must tell you....she is just as good. I can't say enough good things about her. She told me today that she was honored to be my doctor and that I was going to make it. She hugged my neck and told me that I was very special. Of course she made me cry and I thanked her for thinking outside the box for me.

I just wanted to share my good news with my huge support team out there! Thank you all for the prayers, I continue to feel them. You all are amazing!

Much love,
Kelly & Burt
