tumor shrinking!

Preliminary results from today's imaging apparently show that the fast-growing tumor in my right breast has shrunk nearly by half!!! I'm quite relieved as I was not able to feel this myself, but I have to trust they are being more scientific and precise than I am! We will meet with the oncologist tomorrow to get the official results and hear the treatment plan for the 2nd phase of chemo. 

Thank you all for your wonderful words and thoughts in response to my last post. It does mean so much to me not to be going through this alone.

    Fantastic! I am so glad that the chemo is not only stopping tumor growth but is also shrinking it. That is great news. Becca, I so appreciate your having Ari send the posse the link so we can share your journey on this blog (and am really impressed by your insights and writing skills). I also want you to know how much we are holding you in our thoughts and wishing you well.
