Dear Life, On a compass, one degree sets you in an entire new direction. So it is in Clinical Trials. One must “meet the protocol” and on Monday, my Neutrophils were not there. “Let’s do another blood test Tuesday morning”. Dr Herbert walked into the exam room with smiling eyes saying, “You’re in!” Less than a degree increase brought me over the mark needed. I cried and began the Clinical Trial yesterday. I’m in the Chemo group, so will be taking low dose chemo orally throughout the two years, one week on, one week off. Next Tuesday, immunotherapy medication infusion and vaccination, which is also on spread out schedule. It’s rigorous however holds hope. My prognosis is so much better. Cancer is receding given all the treatments I’ve had. WE WILL WIN!
