The Success of Crystal's Treatment

First I wanted to say sorry to everyone for not keeping people as up-to-date as I had originally planned.

Now onto the good news! In the beginning of May Crystal had another MRI. Thanks to the tremendous amount of support that all of you have offered the MRI revealed that the tumor has shrunk 10-20%!!! That is the first noticeable shrinkage to date. The previous treatment (radiation and chemo) was successful in killing a portion of the tumor, but this treatment actually succeeded in shrinking it.

With that being said we are planning on taking Crystal back for an abbreviated treatment this fall to see if we can make the tumor shrink even more.

Thanks again for all of the support, and be sure to stay tuned for future fundraisers to help us get Crystal down for another treatment!
