Kara was able to get her full chemotherapy last week, and had the Novalis performed on Friday. The mask method is much easier and more comfortable than the halo method.
Emma had her first soccer practice last night, and likes her coach, and did a very good job. It looked like she even scored a goal! She and Luke stay busy with school, tumbling, and trips to the zoo.
Prayer Requests:
- Please pray that the Novalis was successful.
- Please pray that Kara is able to receive her full chemotherapy this week.
- Please pray that the cancer be eradicated from her body, permanently.
Thank you.
In February 2005, Kara was diagnosed with a rare form of metastatic brain cancer – large cell neuroendocrine carcinoma. She is a devoted mother of two, and a caring and generous wife, sister and daughter. This blog was started to keep family and friends informed of Kara's progress. The thoughts and prayers Kara has received through this blog have been an unending source of hope and inspiration, including many kind and encouraging comments from people she has never met. We thank you all.

Hi Kara! I'm so happy to hear that the mask worked out and that you got your chemo last week. :) It was fun to see you at Jennifer's shower too. I hope that you have another good week and another successful round of chemo. You look so great now--so HEALTHY! It is wonderful to see you with more energy again. Praise God for that, huh? :)
Love,
Leslie
Dear Kara,
We are so encouraged by all of the recent developments and the wonderful news! What a blessing that the chemo is working so well, that you're able to continue with it as recommended, and that you're able to use the mask instead of the halo for Novalis treatments. We praise God for your renewed energy and joy!
Emma is such a big girl--ready for kindergarten and starting soccer, too. She'll have to challenge her cousin Zach to a match the next time they're together. :)
Much Love,
Gina and Curby
