Good luck Gregg!!! Sorry you have to wait so long for results but am hoping it will be positive results!!!
Hi Pam,
Thinking of Lauren, you and the family and hoping for continued progress. Lauren is constantly in my prayers, as you are too. You must be exhausted. Thanks for keeping us updated.
Stay strong!!!
Love & Hugs,
MaryHi Everyone,
I can’t thank you enough for your kind words and prayers. I did have a little issue today but they took care of it and sent me home WITH THE STENT – NO EXTERNAL DRAIN!!! I am so happy about this and am hoping it stays good with no problems. My bili was 22.1 last Wednesday and today is 19.1!!! So I think that’s a good start. I hope this downward trend continues.
Thanks again everyone – you are all such kind, wonderful people in horrible situations with this disease. My hope and prayers are that they find new and more effective treatments to help us all.
Mary
Hi Kris,
Great news – hope the side effects subside enough to make you more comfortable. Will be looking forward to positive CT scan results!!!

Pam,
I read your blog and just wanted to say I am thinking of Lauren and you all the time and continuing to pray for you. It is such a difficult time and you are so strong. Moms can be amazing and find strength for their children when they think they have no more. Please take care of yourself.
I’m sure Lauren is hearing the family all around her and taking comfort in that. Good luck today – I will pray the surgery to close her up will be uneventful.
All my Love to you,
MaryI can’t add anything better than Jason. Especially his point #3 above. That is exactly how I felt about clinical trials – you go to them after all other traditional options were exhausted. And again, as Jason mentioned, clinical trials were never mentioned to me. I’ve brought them up recently but now that I’ve had chemo, traditional radiation and SBRT, I find I’m not eligible for a lot of clinical trials.

Pam,
Thank you for taking the time to update us. I am catholic and I say the rosary every night and every morning. I just want you to know last night I said the rosary for Lauren and every time I woke up during the night I thought of her and sent a short prayer to God asking for his blessings for Lauren. I will continue to keep all of you in my prayers. Lauren sounds like a fighter so I know she will continue to do so, especially with you and family by her side.
Take care of yourself. I can’t even imagine how you are dealing with such an emotional roller coaster ride. Stay strong!
Peace, Love & Hugs,

Thank you so much. Lauren has been on my mind all night. My evening prayers were for Lauren and I will continue to pray for her.
Hugs,
MaryOh, thank you all so much for your kindness and warm thought!!! What a family we have here and I am grateful to have found you all!!!
Kris, yes I am a praying person so I thank you very much for that prayer. My prayers every morning and night have been asking God to guide the Dr. Erinjeri on Monday so he can successfully get the stents in and they help lower the bili so I can have the aggressive chemo.
Please, everyone keep me in your prayers and thoughts especially at 11:15am EDT on Monday when the procedure is going to be done.
Hugs & Love to All,
MaryHi Lisa,
I hope this doctor finds the answer and can bring you some much deserved relief!!!
Hugs,
MaryDear Jeeyoung,
I am so sorry to hear of the passing of your mom. I know that this is a very difficult time for you. I hope in time you can remember the good times with her and feel her presence around you.
Peace & Hugs,
MarySuch good news Pam!!! Lauren is one strong young lady – she continues to amaze me as do you!!!
Please take care of yourself and know that you and Lauren are always in my thoughts and prayers.
Mary
Thank you Gavin and Pam. Your kind words have brought tears to my eyes.
Gavin, I know just how your dad felt. I was down yesterday but I got a good night’s sleep and I have my “fighting gloves” on again and ready to put all I have I to this.
I’m thinking positive thoughts for Monday. They’ll get the stents in and bili will come down and I will get aggressive chemo!!!
Thanks,
Mary
