Hate that CEA!!!

Just quickly… getting a treatment right now.  The CEA is up again - however Arnie feels good.  The Oncologist is not sure why the CEA is up so she is ordering a PET scan for the next time we are here, which will be in 3 weeks.  

In the meantime, she wants us to continue getting all the information we can on clinical trials that are available for this cancer.  There have been a couple new drugs that just received FDA approval but they are not here yet. They are available at some other locations so we are to find out where we might go for these.  

Arnie has been searching on the Internet for trials and he has gotten some interesting information which he has questioned Dr. Neelam about.  After talking with her, she has given him some guidance regarding the kind of trials that he would fit into so he knows how to search for their availability.  

It seems like God has some other plans for us so we are trying to be available and to depend on Him for answers. 

Please keep us in your prayers as we continue on this journey.
