drumroll please............

Good News!! The biopsies all came back with NO VIABLE CELLS. The pathologist only found dead cancer cells and scar tissue in the samples he tested. The doctor says that it is not 100% but she feels comfortable with these results based on the tissue structure as well as its composition. I am going to get a CT scan Tuesday to check on the placement in specific to the position of the tumor inside and my ureter. I am having some issues and the doctor wants to find out how much of it is to blame from the tumor and how much is to blame because of damage made by the Chemotherapy and Radiation. I may not even have to have any follow up Chemotherapy which makes my momma and daddy happy. So in the next few weeks I will find out the next step from here but I must say that ---- I am a Rhabdomyosarcoma SURVIVOR!

Checking in....

I made it through my biopsy like it never happened. Well, actually, since I was sleeping I guess it did not happen. I woke up from anesthesia really well ( I did grumble my anger about not being told about having to go to sleep) and was calm and within minutes was happy and giving hugs away. The radiologist said that he got 4 good core samples for the pathologist to test. He told us that it should take only a couple days to get results. I have a clinic appointment on Friday to get the results.
Fingers crossed!
hugs and kisses,

CT Guided Biopsy

Today is my CT guided biopsy on the golf ball sized tumor that is left. I am a little scared even though momma keeps telling me that I am going for a ride in the doughnut to take "big" pictures. I know that there is more than that to it today. I am being real shy but momma and daddy and me are listening to music and I am calming down and singing along.
Be in prayer for me and I send to all of ya'll hugs and kisses

D-Day Anniversary

Today marks one year since I have been diagnosed with cancer. I am not feeling well right now because I am having a reaction on my face that has caused a bad irritation and is real painful.
I got a date for my CT guided biopsy-- it will be on Wednesday February 10 at 9 am, so please be in prayer that all goes well and without any complications.
My momma got me a really cool gift today. She bought me a set of press on nails and I LOVE THEM!!! They are pink with flowers on them.
hugs and kisses to everyone!
