Ane and I met with Dr. Urba this morning and discussed the happy news of another clear scan. We determined to go off the medication again, keep an eye out for any new tumor growth and hit it again with the same or newer drugs when or if they come back.
The drugs currently available that might have a permanent cure still have very low success rates and are not to fun to take. But there are new ones in trial that look promising, so stalling is still our best option.
We have been very blessed with such good responses to the drugs we have been taking. Thank you again for you faith, love and prayers. It is great to be alive!!
Warmly,
Mark
