We just talked to the GI doctors and they have agreed to do a procedure that will put a stent into open the bile duct. This will help Shirley's jaundice and hopefully make her feel a little better. Shirley's disease has progressed significantly in the last few months so I guess the next step will be to find another chemotherapy that will start shrinking the tumors again.
After they get her liver under control I think they still plan to do the spinal tap to check to see if any of the cancer is in the fluid around her brain. They feel like that is definitely secondary because the liver is so out of control.
Shirley is sleeping 99% of the time. When she does wake up she is nauseated and doesn't feel real good. Not real sure how much any of these procedures are going to help.
We have to pray. Shirley is in God's hands right now and her disease seems to be taking over.
