Cancer
My mom has been fighting cancer for the last year. First a blood cancer and then her skin cancer came back and spread throughout her body. The blood cancer is gone, so she’s been on new cancer drugs to fight the skin cancer for the last two months. Her pain levels have dropped enough in the last few weeks that she weaned herself off Morphine and then Tylenol with no ill effects. This week we found out that the new cancer drugs have it in full retreat across the board. There are still specs of it there, but the vast majority of the cancer has been wiped out. In addition to that, mom walked out to the car this week for the first time in over two months. And she successfully walked up and down stairs under the close supervision of a physical therapist as well. He had to help her stand up a month ago. She is doing better every week. This is very good news.
