Oct 2 – Dezirae had bloodwork, femur films(X-rays of her leg to check for cancer) and a chest CT(to check for metastasis). We coordinated with IV therapy and praise be to God the IV went in in the first attempt!! Thank you all for your prayers!
Oct 3 – Our 6 month follow up appointment with Dezirae’s oncologist. Her blood work and femur films were normal! However she has a new growth in her left lung that is concerning for metastasis! Not the news we wanted…we spent the afternoon processing this and working with surgery to get on their schedule ASAP.
Dezirae wished to wait until we knew more to share this. She knows if it is mets that the prognosis may be grim. She has decided that the decision of what treatment is chosen needs to be made as a family! This makes me both proud of her and hurts my heart!
Oct 4 – As we arrived at the hospital today God perfectly orchestrated a divine meeting! A dear sister in christ and fellow cancer mama was standing in the parking garage! Her sweet daughter was a friend of Dezirae’s and flew to be with Jesus soon after Dezirae finished treatment. We haven’t had any contact since the funeral. This was such a special gift to both of us ❤
We met with Dezirae’s surgeon late this afternoon. She will have surgery Tuesday afternoon. They will take a wedge of her lung out around the tumor. It is in the upper lobe and will require about a 6 inch incision between her ribs to remove it!
This will be done at Dayton Children’s Hospital on Tuesday at noon.
Please pray with us that Dezirae doesn’t catch any of this respiratory junk going around! We have a busy few days! Also for pain control after surgery as this is a painful surgery!
Keep Me and Love Me lol

You are in my thoughts and prayers today. My 5 year old grand daughter had a tumor removed March 1St. We are very fortu ute that it was not cancerous. She is still not out of the woods. She has to have MRIS for the next 7 years and for each one of them to come out clean. I oray everything goes good.
