So we went to Hillman Cancer Center today and the doctors say Jess will need to be on interfuron,a different type of chemo,for a year.
With the interfuron there are less side effects.She wont lose her hair but she will have flu-like symptoms for a year.The symptoms will be at there worst for the first month.
They will be surgically inserting a port sometime this week so they can start treaments on monday the 8th.I then have to take her to Hillman mon-fri to have the interfuron injected through the port.
However after 30 days of this they remove the port and she will be able to have the injections 3 times a week at home for the next 11 months.This is actually the best way to go and Hillman is the best from what I have heard!
Her doctor did also say that so far she is already 60% cured and that the interfuron will take that up to 85% cured
Thanks again to all my friends who have kept her in their thoughts and prayers!!
