Today's Update on Mom


Well, according to Mom, this is good news, even though my heart skipped a few beats when she told me about it.

Mom has been diagnosed with Congestive Heart Failure. As she suspected, this condition has been brought on by the hercepton infusions. The good news is that if she doesn't receive anymore infusions and takes it easy for a week or so, the condition should reverse itself. The only thing that's troubling is that the hercepton was completely effective at stopping the type of cancer that Mom had. We're naturally concerned about the possibility of the cancer coming back without it.

So, bed rest for a few days. Taking it easy. And starting Monday, radiation treatments resume.

Before I hung up with her, Mom commented that this turned out to be just a "blip on the radar." Thank God.

And thanks to everyone who prayed with us!!!
