Apparently I have not evoked the right amount of enthusiasm today and now that I'm not feeling well I definitely don't. However, we got wonderful news today. My cancer is technically in remission. My CT Scan showed that the lymph node shrunk 80% and the PET Scan showed that it was no longer taking sugar. Due to the scarring that Hodgskins causes it will probably never completely be gone but it is no longer active. I will still need to complete my remaining 6 rounds of chemo and possibly some radiation.
Thank you all so much for all of your prayers and help, I couldn't do this without you. We are half way there!

  2. Kelli, I'm a friend of Dawn's, we've done yoga teacher training together, and I've been following your blog. I'm in my own cancer scare right now, so far no chemo/radiation, but I did have a PET CTscan a few weeks ago, all clear. I'm keeping you in my thoughts, you will win. See? People who don't even know you are cheering you on - go Kelli, go!!!!!

    Please feel free to email or call me if you have any questions or just need someone to talk to. I know how scary it can be.
