Thanks for asking Rosemary. I'm doing fine. My MELD score runs from 6 to 7 and the carcinomas at last CT scan were dead after the second Y90 treatment. I have a three month CT tomorrow so praying they're still dead and that my liver hasn't thrown off anymore. Had a long conversation with my Hepatologist a month or so ago and she recommended no transplant. Because all my numbers are so good and carcinomas apparently dead she said they would do more harm than good because I have some little heart issues. Heart issues nothing to worry about. Soooo... as of now the world is rosy, just praying it stays that way. I'll update on the CT after Thanksgiving. Blessings, Diane

Diane, I’m glad that you responded with this positive update! I will be thinking of you as you you undergo your routine CT tomorrow and will whisper a prayer.

I will look forward to your next update after Thanksgiving.
