My last blood test concerning the identification of cancer cells traveling through my bloodstream was down from 43 in October—34 in December—22 in February and 12 in April. What does this tell us? The oral chemo I’ve been taking since September 2022 is working to kill cancer cells in hopes that new tumors will not develop until cancer cells traveling through my blood become so transformative as to outsmart the chemo. “What then?” I asked my oncologist. “Then, we try another chemo, all the while, remaining hopeful that, miraculously, given time, the brilliant minds of dedicated chemists will find a cure … and… on that optimistic note, I’ll say adieu … for today …
