We met with Dr. Yaffe today and he agreed with our treatment plan. Dr. Yaffe also indicated Deb’s last liver biopsy at end of October appears to confirm lesions found on Deb’s left liver lobe were low grade consistent to right liver lobe.
As far as the Parathyroid Gland surgery, Dr. Yaffe agreed that it makes sense to wait till completion of the second chemo embo treatment/post recovery. We will have ongoing lab tests during this time to monitor her calcium level to be sure it is not spiking. In addition, Deb will take a weekly fasomax tablet that will help keep her calcium level low as well as maintain bone strength.
Overall, Deb is currently maintaining very well with full awareness. Energy level continues to improve every day. Mostly on weekends, she has been getting great exercise rebuilding strength in her legs for short spurts during our walks around the lake. Enjoyed our wonderful weekend with you Connie, Susan, and Ellen!
Thank you again to all for the absolute wonderful dinners that have kept Deb and us going strong. Sleep well my princess.
Happy Thanksgiving, KTS and love to all,
Rod
A love like ours could never die….

Dearest Debra,
I was not at school last Tuesday when you visited. I was so disappointed that I missed seeing you. I'm glad to hear you are building up your strength. You are always in my thoughts and prayers.
Take care!
Love,
Anne
Hi, Deb! I was heartbroken that I couldn't see you at Keheley. You might not know that I was transferred to McCleskey at the beginning of the school year due to low kindergarten numbers. I miss my Keheley family and I definitely miss your kind, beautiful face. I "keep up" with you through this blog; God bless you guys for doing that. I pray for you often and hope you are having a "good" day...
