Well, Sarah's still trudging through the side effects of chemo & the blood cell stimulant shot (flu-like side effects), but we got the blood tumor marker results and they seemed to be encouraging. We still need to see what the doctors say about it, but one marker did go down & the other one stayed approx the same but is already in the "normal" range for someone without cancer. Seems like these days every week brings new ups or downs. Now we're looking ahead to getting a second opinion on Monday from a doctor specializing in breast cancer at Rush University Medical Center in downtown Chicago. Ben will be jealous that he doesn't get to go -- he'll miss a chance to ride the train in to town. :)
