Gwen – 2019

It seems that the past few times I have updated the blog, I have begun with “It has been a while since I have updated the blog…” and this is no exception. I personally have not had the best year health-wise and thus have been a bit of a slacker when it comes to updates, but as they say, “no news is good news!”

Back in March, I was able to travel with Gwen to Boston.

We had a great trip and had awesome weather for Boston in March. Gwen and I went to her appointment and then spent the day speed-walking the Freedom Trail.

Dr. Shaw was pleased with Gwen’s scans. As with previous reports, brain and abdomen were clear. Both of her lungs have several immeasurable spots that have been stable in size for several months. Since the scans have been stable, Dr. Shaw remains pleased with the current targeted treatment plan (Lorlatinib).

 

This past week, Gwen had another appointment in Boston. Gwen, Justin, and Callie took their time meandering up to Boston.

Again, the report was good – brain and abdomen were clear and those minuscule spots were still present but stable.

They will now be working their way on up to Maine to see the sights before heading back to NY for a few weeks.

Thank you for being such great supporters throughout Gwen’s journey (and for being patient with her slacker blogger).
