      Hi, warriors, wanted to share some good news with you. This morning mum had first CT scan after staring Taf/ Mek in a trial for Stage 3 C unresectable in the end of March and we just got the results – the oncologist told us that the results are great and the pelvic nodes decreased in size! I am so happy, this is the best news we got since November 2017. On our way to NED! Honestly I expected the nodes to disspear knowing that target therapy acts fast, but we will take one step at a time and pray that the drugs are our miracle.
