Not much news
Everything seems to be going ok with the oral drug Vorinostat that Im taking. I dont know if its working or not, but I sure hope so! Ill have another scan at the beginning of August to see whats going on. The last scan I had showed 2 liver lesions. My lab work has been great. Im just hanging out with Skylar and being a mommy! Please say a prayer for our friends Adrienne and her mom Alison, Adrienne is in the hospital with some pain issues related to some new chemo, and my friend Hillary who has a scary new bump that is feared to be cancerous. So start that prayer train! I can also use some prayers as Ive been having some abdomen pain since starting this new drug. I hope its the tumor dying and not growing. Ill update when I have some new info!

Hey Kara,
I was looking at the lymphoma website and I saw your blog and I just wanted to tell you that I have had you on my mind since reading it a couple of days ago.I have a similar story, I was diagnosed with Stage 3 Large Cell Diffuse b-cell lymphoma.I am 28 years old and I have a 21 month old daughter. I was diagnosed last year right after my daughter's 1st birthday. I stayed strong the whole time and my mom found this website with alternative medicines. I used it in conjunction with my chemo and I barely had any side effects for chemo and all of my nodes except 2 small one were gone, my spleen went back to it's regular size. I praise God for that. I know you said that some doctors were giving up on you,so maybe God lead me to you to share the alternative medicine I have been using.If you are interested just email me at jndurieux@aol.com. I will be praying for you.
Jenee
