I told my mom that I would update the blog even though I don't have very many pictures.
BUT.... I do have fabulous news!
Kori had an MRI this week and the results were perfect!
No new growth, no tumor, no edema, no swelling.... NOTHING!!!
This must be a great feeling
And we are thrilled.
Dr. Tudor gave Kori the option of discontinuing her monthly chemo treatments since her MRI results have been so positive. Although, after consulting with Dr. Haslem, told her his recommendation would be for her to continue for another 6 months. The chemo really wipes her out but she is tolerating it better and better each month. Last month she basically "sailed" through it. She told Dr. Tudor that she wanted to continue with it because she wanted to do everything she could to FIGHT. That's our girl!!!! You might remember in an earlier blog post, that Dr. Rao told us in Houston (following the genomics testing) that Kori's type of tumor had been shown to respond the very best to the treatment they were recommending. Also that it is not an aggressive type. That is obviously true with these good MRI results.
And in other news....
Kori has a new therapist named Chris
who is rumored to have formerly been an
Abercrombie and Fitch Model
Mom said "pictures will be forthcoming"
I say some of them may need to be shirtless,
if I am to be convinced of the truth of his past employment history.
You can't make a claim like that without being prepared to
authenticate it's validity

This is Chris in the aqua shirt but obviously not the pictures we are hoping for. These guys really earn their money and Kori continues to work hard everyday. She never complains and is always so nice and sweet to her therapists with a smile on her face. She continues to amaze us.
