After what seemed like bad news after bad news, my appointment with the oncologist finally came back with good news!
I have a specific biomarker in my tumor that will allow them to use a medication for targeted treatment to slow or prevent the growth of that specific marker (meaning the cancer and nothing else). Four pills twice a day for two years, but likely no chemo or radiation if it works! Please praise God for this opportunity, but continue to pray that the side effects will be minimal, that it won’t interact with my current important meds, and that I will overall tolerate it. I won’t start it for about 4 more weeks to let my body rest from surgery for a bit more.
