Hello all,
Well, we took Anna to her appointments with her surgeons and oncologists and received some very good news, but I wanted to wait until her oncologist checked on a few things. So I called them today and Anna is in remission and will not require any further chemo treatments. She will still need to keep seeing the oncologists for quite awhile to make sure it doesnt return, monthly for now, even less frequently after a couple years.
So, finally
..YAY ANNA!!!
Ive been waiting so long to be able to make this post. I want to thank everyone for all the prayers, positive thoughts and energy
.everything. Thank you.

This is the most awesome news I've heard all week. I am sooooo glad to hear that Anna is in remission and that we've stayed the course. As with her appointments still continuing, so will I hold my vigilance in sending her good thoughts.

I'm sorry I don't frequent or post on the boards that much, but I gotta say SinnerSaint... you have NOTHING BUT PRAYERS from me. As much as I try to be all macho n' crap at times, I have a weak spot for kids and it saddens me when the misfortunes of life strike them early.
I don't know if you've posted any updates with her status, but going to check now. Will be praying for your daughter in the meantime.
Hope you try to stay positive through this and God bless...
(added after reading updates from original post: yea, I'm that infrequent here)
So glad to see things are going so much better with Anna. I'm going to continue to pray that she grows up healthy and this incident is behind her.
Hello everyone,
I have been waiting for all the information I could get before updating you all on Annas progress. But, while we were still in the hospital, my wife updated Annas caringbridge.com site twice, so I am including her posts first, then my follow-up with the pathology report findings.
P.S. In my wifes posts, she refers to pics that shes posted. You can see them at Annas caringbridge.com site, the addy should be in my sig, below. SS
This is a part one of a two part post.
It was an early day this Wednesday the 10th at 6:15 in the morning, as you can see in the picture I have named my pod people, they are so tired they look like twins. She went in at 8:30 am. A special thank you goes out to our sis Amy and our family friend Carrie, for keeping us in great spirits, and laughing through the wait. At 11:30am Dr. Chan came out to tell us that, they were unable to save the Adrenal Gland, as it was completely encased but they were able to save the kidney and the intestines as they were able to Peel the tumor off the arteries as well as the veins with the added bonus of the part of the tumor that made its way in to the divide of the liver they were able to Peel that away as well. They did do a biopsy of the liver tumor and it went all down to pathology to be tested. All in all they were able to debulk the tumor by 95%. There will be one maybe two more rounds of chemo to make curtain that they got everything even the microscopic cells that she may have floating around but they said it went splendidly. So in your thoughts of thanks please include the surgical staff of Dr. Morden, Dr. Chan, and Nurse Tina as well as the rest of the wonderful people who had a hand in Annas surgery day! Thank you everyone for the thoughts prayers and well wishes we have no idea where we would be without you all.
OK here is part two... we are home she was released from confinement and is doing great we have a follow-up with the surgeons in 7 to 10 days and then we meet with the oncology doctors the same day to discuss the next step we got the pathology results back so the next post will be done by "MR GOOGLE" so keep an eye out for it. Here is the picture I took when she woke up in the room. She looks like a little sleepy piggy. As always thank you for all you thoughts and love you are the best we couldn't do this without your support.
Meri
Hello All,
So here I am with the update Merr promised. She left you all off with the surgery results and I have the pathology results in my hands now. I had it all typed out and Googled the heck out of all the $10 words, but it all seemed to boil down to the following:
A. The main mass and adrenal gland: The mass was attached, but not invading the adrenal gland. The mass was 85% mature (dead cancer cells) and 15% immature (active cancer cells).
B. The left hilar tumor: Same as main mass.
C. Liver biopsy: Benign lesion with a mild increase in periportal (veins to the liver)inflammation and a small bile duct hamartoma. (A hamartoma is a benign, focal malformation that resembles a neoplasm in the tissue of its origin. This is not a malignant tumor, and it grows at the same rate as the surrounding tissues. It is composed of tissue elements normally found at that site, but which are growing in a disorganized mass.)
Thats pretty much what the three pages of doctorese boiled down too. Next up is a follow-up with the surgeons (probably to remove the dressing on the incision) and the meeting with the oncology team. The surgeons have already indicated that they recommend at least two more rounds of chemo, and possibly radiation to take care of the possible remnants. And thats pretty much where we are at the moment. We are scheduling the appointments for Monday and we will update you all then.
Thanks for all the support, thoughts and prayers,
SS
