July 2019

Feeling good.

Written on Tuesday, July 2nd @ 6:15pm

I am in the backseat of the car, as Gage is driving us home. We are smiling and laughing about our day.

A perfect time for me to do an update.

We started off early and got our results before heading home, all in one day. Are we exhausted? Yes, our emotions are all over the place, even though you do try to stay focused in the moment without worry. We want to say Thank You for all of the messages and prayers today.

Here is our news…

Nothing has grown. The lungs look the same, still two spots. The liver has something new but too small to decide what it is, so three spots. We are happy. She will continue with chemo for the next three months. The next scans will determine if she will be doing an ablation or something different. Before leaving Mayo we had to do more blood work for genetic testing, that will help determine if she would be a possible candidate for immunotherapy, if we end up not doing the ablation.

That is the blessing, Crystal has been able to stay ahead of her cancer for the new technology that is coming around. So very important to help with research. Research is important, it is a must.

As for the USA Women’s Soccer Team, Congratulations! We loved watching you today, it kept our minds busy.

I can also tell you before Crystals first early morning appointment, right after checking in at the desk, she came right over to me and began talking about the Spirit Show in 2020. Another reminder that this is what I’m suppose to be doing. It fills her mind full of ideas and thoughts vs thinking of her journey with cancer. Thank you God for the reminder to continue to apply the gift you gave me.

Crystal will begin chemo again on July 8th, so she gets to enjoy her 4th of July Holiday Weekend. YaY. Courtney & Cassidy, a time to embrace.

On another note the CR Spirits will be performing at the Great Jones County Fair in the Beer Tent around 6pm. Crystal will be on the 6th round of chemo at that time and actually during the difficult part of that round, she would love to hear you cheering her on while she is doing what she loves.

Happy 4th of July to Everyone.
