- Gina just had a bone scan done as she was having some pain in her leg and the results were not good - there now is cancer growth in neck and upper back areas and again in right leg.
- We do not feel that the new chemotherapy (Gemzar) is doing anything positive for Gina so we will have to see what Dr Olopade decides to change to next on 05/27/09.
- Dr Schwartz saw Gina today and decided she needs to have radiation to new areas (rt. leg, back and neck areas) and will be prepping for it tomorrow.
- Dr Schwartz is the Radiologist that did both Gamma Knife surgeries and IMRT Radiation to brain.Dr Schwartz also setting up a visit to colleague he knows at University of Chicago Medical Center that can do radio static surgery (like gamma knife, but for organs) to Gina's liver as there is concern of tumor growth in that area as well.
- Gina also having CT scans of chest, abdomen and pelvic areas tomorrow to see how she is responding to the Herceptin, Tykerb and Gemzar treatments.
- There was some good news that her recent MRI scan showed the mid-brain tumor appears to continue to shrink and the one recently operated in rear of brain inactive and shrunk (possibly just scar tissue now)

Love you guys....
Hey Gina!
We've been thinking about you and praying everyday. Hang in there. We sang this song this past Sunday at church and it always helps me through the tough days:
Never Let Go
Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death
Your perfect love is casting out fear
And even when I’m caught in the middle of the storms of this life
I won’t turn back
I know You are near
And I will fear no evil
For my God is with me
And if my God is with me
Whom then shall I fear?
Whom then shall I fear?
Chorus:
Oh no, You never let go
Through the calm and through the storm
Oh no, You never let go
In every high and every low
Oh no, You never let go
Lord, You never let go of me
And I can see a light that is coming for the heart that holds on
A glorious light beyond all compare
And there will be an end to these troubles
But until that day comes
We’ll live to know You here on the earth
Chorus:
Yes, I can see a light that is coming for the heart that holds on
And there will be an end to these troubles
But until that day comes
Still I will praise You, still I will praise You
I hold on to the promise of this song and I know you do too.
Love you-
Lori S.
