scan results

take a deep breath: it's good news

I recently had my first scans taken since December. These are a midway check-in to see how treatment working — and spoiler: it’s working really really well.

So to remind you where we started in December:

• Extensive lymphatic involvement (basically it’s all really inflamed and scary looking)

• Enlarged right axilla - 3cm

• Suspicious lesion on my sternum

• Two small spots on my liver (too small to officially be called suspicious)

• 1 small lesion on my spine

• 3 palpable tumors in my right breast ranging from 3-6cm

Oof. Even writing it out it’s hard to take in. I remember telling Evan how badly I had prayed that I wouldn’t need a miracle, that it could be within the realm of normal science and research for me to be cured. But transparently, that wasn’t my situation. It wasn’t early. It was aggressive and mean and spreading.

So a miracle is what we’ve been and will continue to pray for.

Which leads me to my most recent results:

• What was extensive lymphatic involvement, is now unremarkable and too small to be measured.

• My right axilla is now almost normal sized.

• There is no longer a suspicious lesion on my sternum.

• There are no longer any spots on my liver.

• The spot on my spine is stable.

• There are now no palpable tumors in my breast and what remains is a tiny 2x4mm nodule.

• There no other suspicious spots anywhere in my body.

Since we got the results, I’ve called more than a dozen people to tell them the news and the word that keeps coming up between happy tears? Miraculous.

We are absolutely celebrating this news as a major win. It’s a moment to breathe deeply, to give thanks, to rejoice. Just before I started writing, I was reminded of 1 Corinthians 3.

“So neither the one who plants nor the one who waters is anything, but only God, who makes things grow.” - 1 Corinthians 3:7

My doctors are using medicine. I’m doing my part—staying active, positive, and rooted in faith. You’re holding us up through prayer, encouragement, and support. But ultimately, only God can heal me. And this report? It’s proof that He’s doing exactly that. He is moving in my body. And I sincerely hope we’re witnessing a miracle in real time.

There is still a long road ahead: at least 6 more chemo treatments, more scans, potentially surgery and radiation. So don’t stop praying! Keep praying — God is on the move. He is absolutely still in the miracle business.
