I believe I had mentioned that Crystal Marie Barnett was having some heart issues since the start of her new treatment.Well Wednesday was a little scary for her, so we canceled dance, and she is now wearing a heart monitor to learn more.Today, she is smiling with Hazel and she thought mom, “maybe we need some more prayers”. Oh goodness I’m on it🙏🏻
Love your strength Crystal…

We are on our way home, with the reminder it can always be worse.It has been a long day, we left at 2:30am…so we are exhausted. Crystal’s tumors in her liver have remained the same, however a spot that they didn’t see last time, or that they could not tell if it was a tumor, they now can say that it is because of growth. So not necessarily new. Crystals tumors in her lungs have grown 2-3mm. And a couple of previous spots they can now confirm that they are tumors as well. Sad but again it could be worse. So our plan is to continue this treatment until December at her next three month appointment. She will then do her normal checkups, bloodwork, MRI, Cat Scan and then another Dotatate Scan which is like a combination of an MRI & Pet-Scan. This type of scan is very hard to do especially if you claustrophobic. We will then learn the next step in her journey.
It is that time again…

I can’t sleep and yet I am so tired. I have not done an update but it is only because we have been so very busy. Keeping busy helps you forget that you have cancer, especially when it is a fun busy. Her younger sister Cassidy got married in July, and now the CR Spirits are getting ready for the Last Show, so it has been just a little crazy. However, having to do an update is a must, as it keeps our prayer warriors with us. We leave very very early in the morning, we sure would appreciate those positive thoughts, those sweet words of encouragement and prayers, lots of prayers. As Crystal says to me, I really wish we didn’t have to go. I just don’t want to know, I think to myself what a beautiful courageous fighter she is. Please God gives us good news. Three months went by fast. She has handle this new treatment well. She has had three painful injections, one a month with a little scare with her heart but so far so good. Now it is time to learn the news. Thank you all for your kindness. Crystal Marie Barnett I enjoyed my night with you. Hazel made us smile and the students were excited for photos. What a good night, now the rest is in Gods hands. Good Night.
