        My mom has had similar lumps show up.  One showed up on a pet scan and we could definitely feel it, by the time she had her next scan it was gone.  She has one now that felt very marble like but is too starting to feel softer…maybe it is dying? We are hoping and praying. She is on her second round of IPI.  She had mixed response the first go at it.  From what the doctors say that is pretty normal. She has her last infusion tomorrow and a scan the end of July.  Praying for awesome results!

           Keep up the faith.  You have great verses…The Lord does care and he wants us to cast all our cares, anxiety, frustration etc on Him.  Keep looking to Christ!

            Praying,
