Making Good Progress- Cycle 3

There is good reason to celebrate, with a good result coming through from the CT scan from last week. The tumours have not continued to grow at their rapid rate! In fact, there has been no comparative growth in number of tumours nor in the size of tumours since the last CT scan which was two weeks prior to Cycle 1 chemo beginning.

We are very happy about this. Ofcourse, I always hope for more than this incredible news and I am determined to make more impact on the DRAGON LMS!

I have just completed my 3rd round of chemotherapy and so am nearly half-way through the Picasso III trial. It is still too early to discuss the future with my Sarcoma specialist. We are just hoping to remain Progression Free throughout the trial. This term is the one used for Leiomyosarcoma patients, instead of the term:Cure! I know the one that I prefer...

I am being careful to not be exposed to much illness, thus the staying away from work, but am thinking more about the potential of when I could return. I know it is early days for this but am going a bit trippy with all the socialising and Foxtel viewing.....

I want to especially acknowlege my lovely sisters who have been so loyally by my side a great deal of the time and have also been a great support to us at home. You guys are amazing!

Hope you can celebrate my good news with me at some stage soon,
Love your life,
Georgia
