Great News!

Prunedale, CA

I had the pleasure of going with my parents to the oncologist on Tuesday.
My Dad had another PET scan of his pancreas & liver a week or so ago.
His doctor walked in with a huge grin on her face,
to tell us the news...
REMISSION!
I had to ask her...how often does stage IV pancreatic cancer 
go into remission?
"It happens, but it's very rare" was her reply!
We're all thinking that it is the constant prayers that are being said around the US.
Thank you!

He will continue with another round of chemo for good measure.

Last night we went out to their favorite Mexican restaurant to celebrate.
There is rejoicing in the Chamberlin household!
