Hello everyone!
Wow, what a busy week! We just got home from "Kuzzins Kamp" and we are pretty tired! But we are still going strong! Summer is a busy time for us but in a good way.
So, Mom got her results from the MRI and it didn't show anything we didn't already know. Take that as you may. They did however order a PET scan which scans your entire body for any cancer cells and the cells would then show up on this scan. Now you may be like me and ask yourself, why wan't this done before? I asked myself the same thing! However, it did show swelling in the area the tumor is/was in. The doctors weren't sure if that was from bleeding, growth or something else. Hence, them ordering the PET scan. A little frustrating but I guess they have some order they do things in..... I don't know!
So no date has been set for the PET scan as of yet. We are all hoping for sometime in the next week, possibly two. When Mom received the news she sounded encouraged, as were all of us. Our hope is that if the tumor was growing back, it would have shown on the MRI. None of us want to "jump the gun" but things might be looking up! With all that said, we still need to be praying like crazy! Pray that the Lord would continue healing her and that this next scan would show no cancer cells what-so-ever in her body! We all know and believe the Lord is capable.
So that's it for now. Once the PET scan is scheduled, I will let you all know so we can be praying on that date. Once again, thank you all for your prayers and support of the Hooper family. Please feel free to contact me with anything further or if I failed to put information on here that you would like to know about. Thanks again and Happy 4th of July! Let us also keep our troups and veterans in our prayers as well as Maxine!
Blessings,
Tara
