The results are in.....
Good News!! The lesions on my lungs & liver are shrinking!! After a 40 day chemo cocktail cycle, the CT scan brought good news. Dr. Margolis was pleased with the progress. Since this cocktail is working, we will continue with two weeks on and one week off, repeat. Then another CT scan to check on progress. Which whatever y'all were doing with prayers, energy, thoughts, and such keep up the great work because someone upstairs is listening and I am fortunate to be reaping some of the benefits of a powerful group of people, some of which I do not even know. I only hope someday I can personally thank you.

Dara,
It is with tears of joy that I type these words. You are in my thoughts and prayers daily and I have been checking your blog a couple of times each day since the 14th hoping to read good news. I am thrilled to hear that the lesions are shrinking. I will continue to pray every day. Stay strong and hang in there as you continue with this course of chemo.
Love,
Amber

A student who is new to our school just asked me yesterday why I ALWAYS wear two pink bracelets... always. I pointed to the picture near my desk of the two of us, grinning like geeky science goofballs, with Bill Nye the Science Guy. I shared the brief version of your journey with her/the class and told them I was also waiting anxiously for news from the latest CT. OK... so here I am, right now, tearing up as I type b/c I'm so thrilled with the news posted here.
So... vibes from AZ... and you just keep kicking cancer's butt, ok?
I love you-

I too have been checking your blog daily and am SO HAPPY that those nasty things are shrinking. I tear up every time I think of your sweet little girl and all that you are going through. You are an inspiration to me and I keep you close in my thoughts. (sorry, sort of sappy, but sometimes sappy is good :) )
Keep up the fight!
Sending you LOTS OF LOVE and POSITIVE VIBES from Mark & I!!!!!!!!!
Love, Crosser
You are in our prayers and hearts here in AZ. It is wonderful to read this good news.
Dara, you are strong!...
Big Hug and Love, dew
Hey there Babe-
YOU ROCK! I knew you could do it, you and your "village". Keep up the good work (I know you will). Thanks to Chris and all your Michigan friends who are helping with your immediate needs, while those of us far away cannot. As expected, I will continue to send healing energy your way, and LOTS OF LOVE. Truly you are in my thoughts every day. As I said, the pink bracelet stays on until you are cancer-free. I expect to take that off one day soon! Amie and I were talking on Wed and she says you are her inspiration every day, too.. and she hasn't even met you-YET! You are loved by so many. You too Chris, and my little Madrinha Jane. XOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXO-
