Updating in kaekos stead!
Okay so the doctor came in this morning because the results came in. Well it's lymphoma cancer related. And curable with chemo, but it's something I have to live with for the rest of my life.

As lymphoma is known to reoccur. It's slow growing but is treatable. I may suffer from strokes or seizures in the future

They do not want to do any brain surgery due to the fatality risks involved. As far as I know I'll be treated with high dose chemo, no radiation. Every 2 week's for 4 to 5 months, which places my bone marrow transplant on hold. You must be in remission for transplant.

The doctor said that the tumor is comprised of medium sized cells which is a good thing, meaning it's slow growing! No rush for tumor removal, just praying it shrinks.

Ummm did I miss anything?

They will be keeping me in the hospital until I'm comfortable enough to say I'm ready to go home. Which I'm thinking I'll stay over the weekend for safety and go stay with my,mother til the weekend and go home to Gloucester next weekend.

So far they are keeping me on steroids to reduce the brain swelling and giving me liquid pain relievers now.

Any questions? Blessed for answers and living another day. One day at a time!

Also she wants you to know she is confident she will win this fight!

Lymphoma group asked us a question handling our motions publically , this was my response.
Of course we are all scared. Look at me, I'm 26. I had a miracle child during chemotherapy. My family and friends pray every day asking why I'm smiling and so confident.

I thought about it hard in the beginning and I've had my share of tears and wanting to give up.

But I've got a supportive husband, a strong support group. Handsome and healthy son. When I close my eyes to sleep, I'm opening them the next morning and breathing another day.

I've got dealt a hard hand! Stage 4 Hodgkin lymphoma! 6 weeks pregnant! Half way through treatment my cancer mutated into non Hodgkin large diffuse B-cell lymphoma and I'm currently in the hospital for a brain tumor found Tuesday!! I've been married a little over a year to my best partner in life. He has my heart and his smile strengthens me.

I'm not afraid anymore because I know I'm fighting hard, I'm not alone and when it's all over there will be a lot of love shared amongst family and even strangers I call family! My son will be surrounded by it all and I know my story will live on supporting and inspiring others!

I still need a bone marrow transplant!

I don't know how much time I have left. But I'm not going to waste it sulking and being depressed. Its time to celebrate the life I have and keep praying for a miracle."
