October was filled with lots of visits to Cornbelly's at Thanksgiving Point. Every year more things are added including more games, play houses and treats.
More Cornbellys fun!

October cancer update
My last CT scan was on September 29th and I am so happy to report that the tumors in my body continue to shrink!
I continue to go in for bloodwork every 3 weeks to make sure that my WBCs are not too low and to make sure I can start up on another cycle of Chemo medication/Ibrance. My CA 125 has remained steady at a 9 from January to now with a slight decrease to 8 in May. Last April in 2017, my CA was 14. It is staying well below the normal range of 0-35, despite not being a great tracker for my cancer at this time.
I was able to compare to images of my scan in September to the previous CT in June. The measurements of tumors at this time are as follows: 1. Peritoneum: A peritoneal nodule adjacent to the ascending colon measures 1.3 x 1.2 cm, compared to 1.6 x 1.5 cm on the prior exam.

2. Retroperitoneum/R Psoas muscle: Stable to minimal decrease in size of a retroperitoneal nodule adjacent to the right psoas muscle that measures 1.4 x 1.2 cm, compared to 1.5 x 1.4 cm on the prior exam.
Last Spring the doctors were watching at least 7 tumors and now they are only watching 2!!!
I have been feeling much better since having the iron transfusions in August and have continued to work hard on eating as clean as I can, exercising, decreasing my stress, taking lots of immune symptom booster vitamins and using my Rife Machine.

I also decided to participate in the Clean Simple Eats 6 week challenge to see if I could eat better, feel better and loose a little weight. I was really surprised to see and feel so much better when I stuck with the plan. I now love to exercise and am so much happier and stronger now. I have even been able to up my hand weights to 10# compared to 5-8# at the beginning of the year. I know it doesn't sound like a lot, but I am proud of how far I have come.
