Last Thursday we met with Zangmeister Cancer Center and got everything set up. On Monday and Tuesday, we met with OSU The James Cancer experts to get a 2nd opinion due to my highly critical case. We want to trust doctors, but when 3 lives are at risk, it’s hard. We ultimately decided to pursue my treatment with OSU at The James. They have the Stefanie Spielman Breast Cancer Center full of everything I’ll need over the next year. There is still a lot unknowns, but here’s the basic plan we are looking at.

1. Chemo from now until 2 weeks before delivering the babies.

2. Delivery of the babies around 37 weeks (end of January)

3. More chemo (a different, stronger kind that I can’t get now while pregnant)

4. Mastectomy surgery

5. Radiation

We are asking for lots of prayers, for everything. For the health of the babies, our sweet kids who need me, for healing, for Michael, for our parents and my sister Heather who will be helping us tremendously and picking up the pieces as we go on this journey.

Thanks for following along. We appreciate not being alone and being surrounded by lots of love and help.
