It takes both rain and sunshine to see the rainbow. This was created to have friends and family informed on my journey through this dark tunnel. I have entered the tunnel and now have taken the first steps on my way out.

Lack of rain but not sunshine
The lack of rain is unbelievable ! I have never seen anything like it. Or should I say I don't remember anything like it.
I received my ct results today. The ct showed increase in size and numbers of tumors in both lungs. More in the right lung than left lung. I have had no respiratory side effects or symptoms. but that doesn't surprise me because I didn't have any symptoms with my double pulmonary embolism either. I told the dr I like to be unique. With the findings of the ct scan I did not have treatment today. I will be switching to a new chemo drug with insurance approval. That will start next week and it is given once a week, two weeks in a row and one week off.
It is disappointing! It's a set back. My body must have been getting immune to the chemo drug. It Is mostly frustrating because I never imagined I would still be having chemo after 17 months. You never want to prepare yourself for that.
The days of summer are passing by. We have a vacation planned with the entire family. Mom and dad and my three siblings families. Going to charlevoix to stay in a cottage that Ernest Hemingway's wedding reception was in. Right on lake charlevoix. It will be "just what the dr ordered".
I hope you are making lots of memories with your loved ones . Stay safe and keep the faith!
Love and peace to all
Kelly
