Sad Update

“Brad and I received the results from my scans. It’s not what we had hoped for. I wish I could say that I’m in remission, or that the cancer has vanished. But instead, this is what we were told. Basically, the cancer has gone wild,” Angie wrote to fans.

Devastating News

Her grim post continued, “I have new tumors in my brain and the old ones are growing. The tumors in both my lungs are progressing and growing again. I have three tumors in my liver. It’s in my lymph nodes. And, low and behold, it’s in my bones, my breast bone and both of my femurs.”

Feeling Blindsided

“Yes, we were shocked too,” Angie admitted. “I knew things were strange because I have to take headache medicine, Excedrin and Aleve, twice a day to stop the headaches and body pain I’ve been having. But I wouldn’t have ever guessed this. Apparently, immunotherapy was not for me.”

Keep Hope Alive

She added, “We aren’t sure what my next medical step will be. I think a biopsy of my liver, then possibly more radiation, and more chemo. I’ll do whatever God leads me to do.”
