Progress is Slow

As much as I would like to get the show on the road, my doctors are adament about formulating the absolute best plan for me. So, while we saw all the results today from the sonogram, biopsy and MRI, all we really know is that it is an Infiltrating Ductal Carcinoma which is the most common type. There is more technical info but I don't know what it all means yet so I won't bore you with it. Monday I will have the PET CT and then someday next week have a meeting with my oncologist, Dr. Patel, to hopefully zero in on the treatment. The thought at this time is to do chemo first to shrink the 2.5cm tumor and target the lymph nodes, which are still in question. BUT, enough about me.

JAKE IS BACK IN ICU!!!! The fun never stops around here. Last night he spiked a 104 fever, a severe drop in blood pressure, rapid heart beat and freezing chills. And do we have any answers as to why? NO! Apparently he has been seen by many many doctors today who no doubt will be nowhere in sight by the time April gets there tonight and thus we will probably continue to live in the dark! Can you tell the frustration level going on here? I am afraid for April. She is at her wits end. Please please continue the prayers for both Jake and April as they both need to be strong and positive.
