The scoop

So, when Mom got back from her travels, she got a CA-125, and it went down to 478. Again, this drug makes no sense. So the doctor said that as long as the count is still going down, he doesn't see a reason to start chemo back up. Besides, Mom's body could use the break still.

She's been getting on her email, so if you want to email her, it's pmensing@comcast.net. Also, she's getting back into selling Silpada, so if you want to have a party (you can get free jewelry), or just get some jewelry, you can see a catalog online at her website (mysilpada.com/pat.mensing).

Title to be figured out later

Mom's been on a break from chemo for a few weeks... her bone marrow just wasn't replenishing her red and white blood cell counts fast enough, and so after six rounds, she took some time off, and went traveling. She spent a long weekend in Iowa for a family reunion, then spent two weeks in San Diego visiting Brooke, helping her get her new house settled. Oh, BTW, Brooke and Joel BOUGHT a house! We're so excited for them. =)

So anyway, now it's just a matter of finding out what her new CA-125 number is, and setting up the game plan from there.
