Good morning. Ah, an answer! And a way forward. Does this preclude other cancers (pancreatic)? My fingers are crossed that you learn that her treatments are approved when you call.

How is Liz feeling? How are her spirits?

Liz's spirits are good and her appetite has been better since she started the steroids'. Unfortunately our insurance provider uses a third party to determine whether certain procedures are necessary (PET Scan, Radiation Treatment) and they have been in disagreement with the 3rd party on who will make the call on Liz's radiation treatment since Monday. In a nutshell, we have lost this week to bureaucratic B.S. and are hoping an approval to treat will be made NEXT Monday. If the Radiologist gets the approval Monday, Liz will begin treatment next Wednesday.
