Kris Dave and the Lumps: Chemo #4

7-July-2008
Kris went and saw the surgeon and things are progressing well enough that he wants to see her every two weeks rather than every week. Understand that the wound still has not closed, it's just making progress. He said that she'd have a heckuva scar to show up. He has hopes of fixing that when he removes the port or that the plastic surgeon will be able to fix it during reconstruction surgery.

8-July-2008
After much fuming, fighting and generally wrestling with the image folks, Kris was finally allowed to have her sonogram. It seems that they aren't used to doing sonograms without Mammograms to compare to. If you will recall, however, there was nothing to see on the Mammogram, only on the MRI and Sonogram. The most excellent news is that they had trouble finding any of the lumps save the one that was the largest. All of them have shrunk markedly and thus seem to be responding quite well to the treatment. Cause for celebration, in my humble opinion. :)
