My mother called me this morning from Seaside, Oregon, where she has gone on vacation with my father. She had a CAT scan two weeks ago to check the cancer’s progress and finally heard back the results of that.

The CAT scan showed that the cancer has not progressed since the last time they checked it several months ago. Something else is causing fluid to build up in her stomach, which is what has been causing her so much pain lately, but they said they can drain that if they need to. They think the chemo is keeping the cancer at bay.

I am very proud of my mother, ten months into pancreatic cancer and still fighting hard. We will keep praying for a remission.
