Daughtersofmoms withBREASTCANCER Update on Mom

Well, after a couple of months on the research program, it has been decided
that the hormone is not shrinking the breast tumor. In addition, they found
something suspicious on her liver during a recent MRI. They are planning to
go down with a scope to check it out, they indicated to us that at this time
(until the test) they cannot tell if it's cancer or not. If it is, we'll
start chemo immediately. Of course, Mom's not too thrilled, as she's been
calling me every couple of days complaining about all the new medications
and the frequent doctor's visits. I comfort her as much as I can, but tell
her we have to push on for what's best for her. She'll still continue to
take the hormone, because we do know that while the tumor didn't shrink, if
it grew, it was very little, so why mess with a good thing.

As for the rest of my life, well, that's another story. The house phone and
my work phone are off, they repossessed our vehicle, we still haven't found
a place to move and I'm still trying to keep my head held high. I know it's
the Devil and I know that he's only showing his true colors because I
finally found a church home where I feel wanted and needed. So I'm not going
to buckle down under his tactics. I ask that you all continue to pray for
me, as I do for you. I don't sit down to post very often because it's
something about the very act of typing out my feelings that gets the better
of my emotions.

Love you all,

Stephanie in Detroit
