The oncologist cut the chemo by 50% but it was still making her so sick that she lost 38lbs after 3 chemo infusions. So the chemo helped in the soft tissue but she wasn’t hardly eating or drinking anything. Hence they stopped the chemo and are just using antibody infusion. The team leader told us though it is bad , very bad since it’s in her bones, especially the spine. As you see the lesions in the bones are bigger than the last scan.

This is so hard. Is she in a lot of pain?

I didn't realize chemo worked better in soft tissue and didn't work in bone lesions.
