Isabel has what is called Ewings Sarcoma. This is a newer form of cancer and is not recurrent. Her cure rate with this type of cancer if 80%. Had it been Rhabdo, it would have been 50-70%. This form of cancer only has a 22 week treatment plan, not the 40 originally thought. The Oncologist said this type of cancer is extremely rare, but a better type of cancer.
Treatment plan:
Week 1- a 36 hour (overnight) stay
Week 2- IV push (a few hours)
Week 3- a 5 Days (5 overnight) stay
Week 4- IV push (a few hours)
-- Then start over.
The first treatment will start Monday, December 19
I will be making an excel spreadsheet this weekend & we will map out dates of when Jen would like to have dinners brought in.
