A new phase of care.....

Today was a difficult day. We found out that the tumours are growing very actively, based on last week's CT scan. It confirmed what I was feeling as my body continues to morph completely out of proportion.

The Sarcoma team believe it is time to come off the chemotherapy treatment. They also believe that further treatment may have more costs than benefits to my system which is no longer as robust. We will consider some options, but I need all of you to know all aspects under consideration are palliative from now on.

Pain managent and wellbeing will be our focus. Trust me, this is a big deal as I am beginning to be quite sore a lot of the time. The medication tends to make me quite vague and drowsy.

I am down but not out and at peace with this whole thing. Thanks to you all for continuing to travel this road with me!

Love Your Life,
Georgia
