My partner is having an MRI this Monday which will determine whether the drug works or not. If not, he'll not be part of the clinical trial any longer and have to find a different treatment. We hope the tumour stays the same size if not smaller. Fingers crossed!

I pray all goes well and the tumor has shrunk. It is stressful if a treatment does'nt work,and another one has to be found. Good luck Dotty

Hi Rarsie, The scan result looks kind of promising. The main tumour area is better and the swelling has improved as well. However, there is a spot of 7mm appears on the scan. It wasn't there 5 weeks ago. We'll have to wait and see what it's like in the next scan in 4 weeks time. More fingers crossed!! How's your son doing?
