Hello Folks,

Laura made her weekly visit to the doc today. The doc said said since her numbers (tumor marker) hadn't dropped much, he thinks she has reached a "plateau" with the chemo drugs. Also said he thought it was time for a rest from the chemo, so she did not have a chemo treatment today--just Zometta (for the bones). He is going to confer with the doc at UC-Davis but she will probably continue with the monthly Zometta and take Tomaxifin orally. He will continue monitoring her tumor marker and should the numbers begin to go up, he will give some thought to starting another type of chemo regimen. Hopefully the Tomaxifin will keep everything in check.

Let's all just keep our positive thoughts, energies and prayers going her way.

Mom/Shirley
