We got to Duke at 930 and appt was at 1030... I was excited because maybe we would be in and out quickly but boy was I wrong....
We finally saw the dr at 1215. We saw Dr. Desjardins and I will honestly say that I was a bit nervous since she was a young woman BUT we absolutely loved her. She is the same type of physician as Dr. Moots @ Vandy. The difference between them was night and day. She was very warm and compassionate, not that he's not compassionate but... She explained to us that without a tissue sample, biopsy, no one would be able to do any clinical trials. Which made sense after talking... However since the tumor has grown, She was going to have Alan Friedman, neuro surgeon, look at the scan to see if there is any chance to biopsy. So... She said she would call us on Tuesday after their meeting. Not really sure what outcome I want because either way could be dangerous. Guess it's not in our hands!!!
The new plan: wait until Tuesday, if it can't be biopsied then Todd will go back on temodar but an everyday dose not a 5 days/month dose. Then from there they will watch him and if needed they can add another chemo to the mix.
So all and all not a bad day... Not a great day but we have another plan! Eventually one of our plans have to work, right???!?!
Thanks to everyone who called or texted the last 24 hours... And thanks for the prayers!
