Answered Prayers!

Guess what! I got to cancel radiation!!! 🙌

I went through the full simulation process yesterday, ending the day with a chest CT. I didn’t get the results until evening, and then had to wait to talk to the radiation oncologist today. I’m still waiting to hear back from my oncologist about next steps, and have received some confusing and unclear information about the details, but here’s the long and short of it: Over the last 6 weeks 1 lung nodule has continued to grow, 1 has DECREASED in size, and the rest have remained stable 🤯 This is typically unheard of without traditional aggressive therapies, so we are Incredibly excited, hopeful, and cautiously optimistic! The self-experimentation and hitting my protocol hard seem to be working!!! 🙏🤞

I asked the radiation oncologist what she thought about radiation at this point, and she essentially said that because the nodule isn’t a big threat right now, I could cancel treatment… so you better believe I did! 😂🥳

I still have no idea when I’ll go in for my next scans, or if I need to consult with anyone else in the near future for the one nodule that grew, but for now, I at least know that I do not need to do radiation next week! 💃🏼

I couldn’t get an appointment with my oncologist until the 31st, so it may be a while before I have any additional details to share. My head has been spinning all day… trying to grasp reality, but for once, in a good way… I’m very excited to (at the very least) be able to delay treatments. But I’m working for Total Healing, and will continue to do the work to get there! I know your prayers, positive energy, and support are all helping me get there, too!

Thank you all! Thank you, God! 🙌💖
