News from Sarah is all good - sounds like she is enjoying every minute of her experience at Conservacion Patagonica! Bob is glad that finally everything has gotten back to "normal" at the club after the holidays. I'm back at school but have been struggling with a lot of abdomenal pain and overall discomfort due to the fact that the fluid has already come back in my belly. I will be starting chemo again with a drug that I had success with over a year ago but was taken off of because of the danger of congestive heart failure for users over a long period of time. Since I have tried all of the chemo drugs that are on the "approved" list for my kind of cancer according to my insurance company, I really have no other alternative at this time. I hope the doxorubicin (trade name adriamycin) will be as effective as it was previously. My homeopathic physician has been unable to get the enzymes from Germany that he hoped to give me intravenously over the holidays, so that is on hold for now until after I get through a few rounds of the chemo. My oncologist will order an echocardiogram prior to the treatment on Monday or Tuesday of next week, and will infuse me with another drug that helps counteract the negative symptoms that might occur. I have an appointment on Wednesday, Jan. 12, to meet with doctors at University of Colorado Cancer Center in Denver about eligibility for any clinical trials they may have going on for endometrial cancer. I will also get the fluid drained from my belly that afternoon at Presbyterian St. Luke's where I have had it done the past three times. I feel so relieved that we have a plan for my treatment - I felt like we were floundering for the past few months trying different chemos that were ineffective and losing ground rather than making progress. The Lord is in control and He is faithful, so with your continued prayers and support I know that we are on the right track for now. Will keep you posted as any new developments (good or bad) come up.
