Updated Game Plan

Nonnie and Papa went up to Los Angeles this morning to meet with her doctor. He is very proud of her for facing this challenge head-on, where most people would have ducked and covered. He told her that her counts are doing very well, and at this point, she has no limitations. This means she can go out in public places like restaurants, movies, etc. She will have to listen to her body and be careful not to overdue her activity until she is back to full strength.

The doctor told them what the game plan will be starting in a couple of weeks. The best treatment that she can receive will be identical to what she just finished.....repeated multiple times. Starting in 2 weeks, Nonnie will return back to UCLA for a consolidation treatment, which will be much like her last visit. The treatment will be a strong dose of chemotherapy, followed by several weeks in the hospital. After that, she will go home for 2-3 weeks and repeat all over again for a total of 4 more times.

This treatment will give Nonnie the best possible chance of staying in complete remission. She is willing and able to continue the fight as long as it takes. All she needs is the continued love and support she has received throughout this process. For now, she is enjoying being in the comfort of her own home and being surrounded by loved ones.
