It ain't over till it's over....

Saskia has been feeling fantastic and has happily started year 5 at St. Mark's.
Last week she had to go for one of her regular CT scans and nothing suspicious was to be expected. The results of the scan were to be discussed today, but last Monday night, she woke up with a pain in her left shoulder. She could not move her arm and there was a relative large lump on her shoulder.
So the following morning an appointment was made at the Brookman ward at the Women's and Children hospital, were she was told that it seems that the neuroblastoma is back....
Immediately a full body CT scan was organised for today.
After today's scan, we had a long discussion with the treating doctor and we saw for ourselves what had happened. Even though all the tests performed last year showed that there was no cancer in the rest of her body, there are now 3 spots that are very suspicious and are most likely neuroblastoma.
To cut a long story short: Saskia will have to undergo the whole range of tests once again, followed by potentially an operation, but now most certainly followed by chemo therapy.
Tomorrow she will go for her bone scan and they try to organise the MIBG scan for next week. Once they have all the test results in, a decision will be made regarding the doses of chemo and whether an operation is needed or not.
