Update

That’s my optic nerve—left and right eye.

So, I’ve been busy jumping through hoops. Consent form signed. Labs taken. EKG and ECHOcardiogram performed. Eyes examined–that was a big if–but my retinas look good. All that is left is a brain MRI–which should not pose any issues.

A week from today I shall have my biopsy. The following day, I am to start the trial for Lorlatinib in combination with TNO155–a SHP2 inhibitor.

Had I not been to this particular rodeo so many times before I might be anxious. Or maybe a little bit excited. I am neither. What I am is tired. But also hopeful.

Always hopeful.
