I've been detained with contractions, so Allen called Mom's doctor to ask some questions. He asked about how her involvement in the clinical trial for multiple myeloma would impact the treatment of her current condition. The doctor said that it has no impact on how they are treating her and there is even a clause in the contract that outlines that. He also said that they're actually not 100% sure what the masses in her peritoneal cavity are. They aren't sure that it is ovarian cancer as originally thought, but they also aren't sure that it isn't. A couple of days ago, the ob/gyn oncology doctors spoke with Mom and said they were organizing a team of people to meet with her and decide on the course of action from here on out. That plan makes more sense now that we know that they are really still trying to figure this stuff out.
I haven't spoken with Mom yet today but I did talk with her some yesterday. She was very, very loopy from the pain medications but her pain level seemed a little bit better, so I guess that is a good trade off. Thanks for the continued prayers, thoughts and support!
