We are just back from the infusion center. Mark is receiving his 7th round of the FOLFOX chemo regimen with Avastin added to it. Our appointment with Dr. Farmer went well. She was definitely glad that nothing had gotten bigger and no new spread. The formal report hadn't gotten there yet, but she was going on a verbal. We took the copy of the CT scan on disc up there for her to look at this afternoon. She does not feel we need to change chemo at this point. Mark looks and feels good and is maintaining his weight. The other good news today was that Mark's CEA number fell again and is down to 3 which is normal. It was very exciting to hear and we gave each other a high five at the sound of it. We continue to pray that this is the right stuff for Mark.
We haven't heard about our appointment at MD Anderson yet, but hope to hear by mid week.
I know many of you who read this know Travis Rabren. We are so saddened of the loss. He was such a fighter and a true inspiration to our family. Mark enjoyed his visits with Travis every Monday in the infusion center and we will miss him dearly.
Continue your prayers for Mark. We appreciate them all. God bless!!!
