We have a plan! Our meeting with the oncologist yesterday went well: I am starting chemotherapy on Monday, October 22nd. I will be taking the tablet "Temodar" at home every day. The oncologist said I would be taking Temodar for an "indefinite" period of time (due to the size of my tumor). We talked about radiation (which I can only have once due to the location of my tumor) and Zev and I have decided agains...
t radiation for now. We'll reassess after the next MRI scans (probably around November). God IS good. I'll be honest, I was kind of feeling down and low on hope this week. Waiting for news is hard and the mind plays all sorts of tricks when left to wonder. But I trusted in God, nonetheless, even when my faith was as small as a mustard seed. I am happy again. THANK YOU ALL so much for your prayers and messages of encouragement. I read them while at the clinic and they really encouraged me. Thank you :-))

Yay! A plan. Justin started with the same plan. I'll be praying for you as you begin treatment. Stay strong.
So glad to hear you now have a path to follow. Will keep you all in our hearts and prayers. Keep your strength close and hug those boys.
Hola prima! I am so happy you finally got an update. I know it was hard waiting, but the doctors want the best treatment for you. We will all continue to pray for you. You are a strong woman and you need to be strong for Zachary and Zev. I love you and I know that you will overcome these difficult times. You are a fighter! God is good and He will make you well again. Besos prima xxooxx, Monique n familia
Great news Fi. Now you are a girl with a plan and changes in your condition are right around the corner. I do hope that the pill will be gentle on you and that you will remain feeling good as you have been so that you can continue to enjoy your lovely boys and activities with them!!!
God has you wrapped in His arms and will care for you during this time. Love and miss you very much FiFi. xoxoxox
Hi Fi - you don't know me but I wanted to stop lurking on your blog and actually say hi. Not sure how I came across your sweet blog - but God always seems to guide our hand when it is least expected, right? I actually live in Baltimore and have been praying for you since I started reading (right when you were diagnosed). I am married and have the most amazing son - sadly God called him home a few months ago, and my grief is beyond words. He was only 24 and was ready to take the world by storm! I am trying to not live my life in anger and sadness - but to try and be a help to others. I will continue to follow your journey and pray for you!!!
God bless....
