Are you hormonal? A medical update.

Deryl says................................................... Well, we got some good news today. The cancer is both estrogen and progesterone positive. This means that Kelley can take medication to help kill the cancer. The HER2/neu test had to go out for more detailed analysis. We are hoping that one comes back negative as a positive means the cancer is more aggressive. But on the good side that can be treated with medication as well. A positive result will increase the chances Kelley will require chemo but it doesn't necessarily mean she will have to have it.
Kelley is scheduled to have a MRI on Friday and her surgery is scheduled for May 4th. We will update you as any new information becomes available.
So as a guy that lives with 3 young ladies it is good to know that even cancer can be sensitive to hormones!
