UPDATE on my stepmom's Cancer

[zurgswife]

I recieved this email from my dad this afternoon....

We received some very encouraging news yesterday from Jackie's doctor. Its seems a though the Chemo is working. Her Cancer Marker Number when she began treatment in December was 185 (considered high) yesterday in her latest blood test the number was down to 33. This is really wonderful news becasue it means that the chemo and radiation are working. Normal is somewhere from 0 to around 25. It does'nt mean she will be cured , but things are going in the right direction for getting the cancer into remission. She is tired today from getting chemo yesterday, but mentally, she is feeling wonderful.
Our prayers are being answered, so please continue to keep Jackie in your's and thank you one and all for your continued support. We thank God everyday for having your love and friendship.
Jackie and I send our love and thanks ...... Earl

Thanks to all my DIS friends who has kept my stepmom in their prayers....
