Had a follow up appointment with my doctor today. Received my first Sandostatin injection today. This is a monthly shot that will help with my cancer symptoms. We are hoping it will also reduce the tumors. We have heard from another patient that his tumors actually shrunk from the drug. We also talked about clinical trials and treatment after my next two rounds. Not sure where this will go yet but its good to be prepared and educated. One big plus to these doctors visits is Dan and I go on dates afterward! The kids are already with a sitter so why not have a little fun :)

You go girl!! Those tumors don't stand a chance against modern medicine and good old-fashioned love and support. I have no doubt that you will "kick cancer:. Stay strong!!!
