Many you have graciously followed her story and offering me encouragement and support over the last three year's journey. A quick recap:

In December 2021, my then 30-year-old daughter and mother of our three young grandchildren, was diagnosed with stage 4 glioblastoma, the worst, and terminal, form of brain cancer. She underwent surgery, radiation and chemo and in March of 2023, it appeared the tumor has disappeared. It came back in June of this year. She was given a maximum of 9 months to live. In July, she was approved for a stage I/II immunotherapy clinical trial. To begin that trial, she underwent an MRI that showed the tumor had grown back and spread over the last month. The immunotherapy drugs made her severely ill, so the doctors cut back the amount to half. Last week, after two months on the trial, she did another MRI. Amazingly, it showed the tumor had disappeared!

We thank God for this amazing result. She will continue the immunotherapy and undergo another MRI in three months. Please continue praying for her. Check out this news story on her if you haven't already seen it.
