Just a short update on our friend, Tiger Fan (Lisa). I received an email from her partner, Lynn, a bit ago, and she asked me to pass on some info.
As you know, Lisa has been fighting a very tough type of breast cancer, inflamatory breast cancer, for some time now. This same cancer took our DIS friend Sylvia from us about 2 1/2 years ago.
Lisa has been on a pretty steady 'diet' of chemo for many months now. Lisa, her DD Emily and Lynn just came back from WDW a couple days ago from a nice holiday trip. She was able to get around pretty well with both wheelchair and ECV.
While at Disney she found a knot in her abdomen. She went to see her oncologist when they returned home. He decided to hospitalize her in order to run tests to determine why her left leg is still not working and to determine what the knot in her stomach is all about. Lisa was hospitalized Monday and so far has had a CAT scan, a bone scan, and two MRI's. She still does not know anything conclusive about her leg and still waiting to have a stomach biopsy. It will probably be Tuesday or Wednesday before she gets home.
Please do keep Lisa in your prayers and best wishes, she truly can use them in her fight with the 'Beast'.
Thank you,
Dan
