We had a wonderful Father’s Day weekend spending time with Drew’s parents. Between eating great food, playing Topgolf, and enjoying games at home, it was just really nice to relax and enjoy each other’s company.

The kids are preparing to go on a Mission trip to Alaska. They are still raising funds for that but are unbelievably excited. This is Abbey's first year to go on a mission trip with our church, and Luke's third year. It will be fun for the two of them to get to go together.
On Monday, I started my first infusion for Cycle 3 of Trodelvy. Before the treatment, I had to get my usual lab work done to ensure my blood counts were in a safe range. Thanks to a booster injection I received last Friday, my white blood cell counts were right where they needed to be. I also got some encouraging news from my metabolic panel: my liver enzymes came down a bit. They are still high, but they are finally heading in the right direction!
Yesterday, however, I received some of my other results, and my tumor markers are still rising—this time, quite significantly. Despite this, I really want to move forward with my scheduled treatment this coming Monday (week two of this three-week cycle), and I’m hoping my doctor is on the same page. Since these latest markers reflect the previous cycle, I feel it’s still too early to pull the plug on this treatment after only two cycles. So prayerfully, perhaps these results are just due to tumor die-off. I'm actually feeling well considering and am so grateful for that. Thanks for your continued prayers and love!
