Tests Results

Yesturday she had a full body bone scan and chest CT. The bone scan prelimanary results didn't show any other tumers.

Today Ashlee had a biopsy -- She has Osteosarcoma which only involves her right arm and possibly can go to the lungs. They implanted a IV port in her chest. So now her arm and her poor chest is sore.

Tomorrow she has an Echogram and hearing test done for a base line because the chemo can affect those two. Then she will start the chemo. Her first session is 48 hours.

She will have part of her chemo herein Salt Lake and hopefully part in Billings. Each month she will have to come back to Salt Lake.

After two months of chemo, they will do surgery to remove the tumor then she will have another six or so months of chemo. They say the whole process will take about a year.
