Pathology Report Results

It's been a week since Felicitas' surgery and she's starting to feel a little better. She was having quite a bit of pain, mainly from a nerve that had been cut during surgery. Now that a week has passed, it is safe for her to take Ibuprofen, which has helped lessen this nerve pain. She is now able to walk and actually sit up on the couch instead of being confined to her recliner. Felicitas' comadre, Lisa Shimomura flew in last night for a week to help take care of the kids and Felicitas. I know Felicitas is thrilled to have Lisa there and have the much needed help!

Today, Dr. Parker called with the results from the Pathology report. She said that no cancer or cancerous cells could be detected! Felicitas and her family are understandably in shock, but ecstatic! This was the best outcome possible. She literally feels like this is a miracle. It was only 8 months ago that she was given the devastating news that she had stage 3 breast cancer and that her only hope for a cure was through the I-Spy 2 Trial. Now, here she sits today, with no evidence of cancer cells!

  1. This is the miracle that we have all been praying for...when I heard the news about the pathology report, I just cried wtih Pita, just so proud of her and thankful for her positive spirit and all of the prayers and care that have been so generously given by all. This is an answer to prayer. The I-Spy 2 study has been the path to a cure!
