I just wanted to give everyone an update on what the deal is. So the official biopsy will not be back until Tuesday, but the plan is to go ahead with treatment starting on Monday. Ill have a new port put in and have high dose Methotrexate for 5 days, and will stay in the hospital until its totally out of my system. I will also be receiving Methotrexate and Rituxan in my eye directly at some point, and maybe radiation to my left eye depending on what dr O, and Dr.Marr think.
So, my eye is feeling ok, just alittle sore and lots of blood still in it. Chad and I went walking around New York City today and had a pretty good time. Im missing my sweet Skylar terribly. I will be staying in NYU Hospital from Monday on, so feel free to send letters, etc. :)
Im feeling pretty depressed and defeated, but Ill get back on my feet here soon and get in fight mode. Just processing all this information is a lot.
Also, I hate to ask, but I must. We are hoping for some of our friends to donate some to the "transfer Kara to NYC Fund" so if you have any spare change, please donate through paypal on the front page of my blog. I know you guys will help :) I will have to come back to NYC for 6 months every 3 weeks for my week long stay in the hospital, and then Im sure Ill have to be up here for eye chemo also. So anything would help! Thank you so much!
I wish I had better news, I know many of you look to my blog for support and hope, but dont you worry, you'll have even more hope after I beat this again. :)
With Love, Kara
