Update


Megann had a new scan done last week. The doctor's report found no new growth! There are two new drugs that he would like to try, but they have not been approved for ovarian cancer. One of them is Evastin. He is thinking about what to do next because there are only so many more treatments that she can have of the Carbo Platin. But, for the past several doctor visits things have been growing, so at least this has held things off and stopped the growth. We just need to pray about the next move and that the new drugs her doctor would like to try come available soon. We also need to pray that, with the new treatment, Megann continues to feel as good as she does.

The picture is from Megann and Jon's Christmas trip to her sister's house to see her new nephew. Karen and Kenny live in Milbrook, Alabama.

Update

Here is a quick update for those of you who have been wondering about Megann. Megann and Jon headed to Alabama to be with her family for Christmas. They had a great time and made it home safely.

As far as MD Anderson, it has been put on hold for now. They plan to have Dr. Hancock schedule a scan and then go from there. She just started her third round of the new treatment with Carbo Platin. With this new treatment, she has had more energy and less pain. We will update with scan results and further treatment options for Megann as soon as more news comes available. In the meantime, your comments and prayers continue to be especially comforting for Megann.
