Chemotherapy Plan

Kara seems to be perking up a bit, and the stroke effects are improving. Her speech is better, and her coordination is coming back a bit in her right side (it is her right side that was affected by the stroke, not her left, as I had stated earlier). She has had the mask made that she will need to wear for the radiation, which will begin tomorrow. She will have ten radiation treatments.

Dr. Lynch has decided on a new chemotherapy drug that has been found to be effective in neuroendocrine cancer. She will probably start that in a few days, after a few rounds of radiation.

Please see below for Kara's prayer needs. Thank you.
