I spoke with Kristie today, and the good news is that the chemo is doing its job and the lymphoma has been greatly reduced!
Continue to keep Kristie in your prayers as she still has several more rounds of chemo to endure. Kristie was scheduled to have a treatment yesterday, but the port through which she receives her medicine was not functioning properly, and instead of receiving treatment she ended up having multiple tests to determine what exactly was wrong with the port, and whether or not she should have surgery to replace it. With Kristie's blood counts being what they are, they decided not to risk surgery at this time. During the testing they also discovered that she has several blood clots, so they have started her on a medicine that is aimed at breaking up those clots. Please pray that Kristie's body will continue to respond well to her treatments, and that the complications with her port will diminish as the blood clots are dissolved.
