This afternoon we met with Eloise’s neurosurgeon at St George’s who informed us of the great news – Eloise’s MRI and CT confirmed that there is No Evidence of Disease. She continues to be cancer free.
Furthermore, the scans confirmed that the ‘lesion’ is microangiopathy/calcification. It remains right in the middle of Eloise’s brain stem but hasn’t changed. The MDT concluded it is probably a result of proton and will likely remain there. The neurosurgeon will continue to monitor it during the scans, alongside her shunt – which continues to work well.
Eloise’s endocrinology appointment showed that she is expected to need growth hormone, but a further, longer test, will be needed first (which will happen in January).
How do we feel?
- Relieved that the CT and MRI confirm what we had all hoped, and that there have been no changes to the calcification.
- Appointments often remind us of how well Eloise is doing. Today we were reminded by the neurosurgeon how technically complex Eloise’s surgery to remove the tumour was, and they now use her as a neurosurgical case study. These conversations remind us of where she started – ETMR high grade brain tumour with awful prognosis in an ‘inoperable’ location.
- Chuffed that Eloise is doing well. She’s integrating into class well and has quite a full life of nursery, church, swimming lessons, riding with riding for the disabled, parties, friends and her dog! (Alongside juggling her appointments – which can result in some interesting variety and dichotomy)
- Eloise does seem to be neurologically impacted when she gets an infection (eg absence seizures or other neurological symptoms), which means the winter season is harder, but overall Eloise is doing well.
For those that pray:
- Give thanks that Eloise is doing well and that her scans show she remains CANCER FREE! Give thanks for the remarkable miracle it is that she is with us and enjoying life.
- Pray for Eloise’s continued health. Pray for her to cope with infections this winter – for protection from seizures and other neurological challenges, for her immunity to build and for her to get stronger. Pray for her continued development – for her language, coordination, balance (she cant run or jump) and processing speed.
