Jane met with her team of doctors today, Friday May 3rd, at MD Anderson to
review the results of her most recent tests. The CT scan showed new evidence
around Jane's right kidney, which may or may not be a recurrence of the disease,
and Jane's cancer marker levels were elevated. Jane's doctors will review her
case with a wider team and make a recommendation to us in the next week or so.
Unfortunately, Jane will have to come off the present clinical trial if it
appears the disease is recurrent in this new area of Jane's body. Jane's doctors
have identified another clinical trial that it looks like Jane will be eligible
to enroll in if we have to go that route. Jane's doctors have also recommended
that Jane see a urologist to have her kidneys checked out just to be
safe.
Our doctors have cautioned us not to get
too high or too low over the course of this treatment as there would be good
days and there would be more difficult days. We have to stay steady on course
as we are on Cycle 27, after having started at MD Anderson in October 2011. We
sincerely appreciate all the continued prayers, support and assistance. Thank you
so much.
