Dr. Lynch has decided to try Novalis on the tumors instead of the other alternatives. Kara went in today to be fitted for a body cast that will be used for her treatments. She is feeling a little "peppier" since receiving the blood transfusion, but still is very fatigued.
Kara, Matt, and the children had a good Father's Day weekend at the farm. The kids played around outside while Kara rested. It rained off and on on Sunday, so the temperature was pleasant, and we were able to all hang out on the porch and play games and relax. Emma was very excited about being able to buy her dad a Father's Day present out of money she had saved from her allowance.
Prayer Requests:
- Please pray that the Novalis procedure goes smoothly and is successful.
- Please pray that Kara can resume chemotherapy soon.
- Please pray for increased energy and strength for Kara.
- Please pray that the cancer be eradicated from Kara's 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.
