We traveled to Houston on Wednesday, August 4, 2010 for scans. We were 300 miles from home and received a call from MDACC that BCBSTX would not approve the PET Scan that our oncologist had ordered. They would approve a CT Scan, but not the PET Scan......cheap insurance company! We had the CT Scan last night about 8:00pm and when Michael came out of the scan, he told me, "Mom I just feel like something is wrong." Don't know if he heard them talking about the scan or what,but he was definitely a little worried. We met with Dr. Ravi this morning and he advised that the scan showed some active sarcoma in the pelvis area again and we told him about the on and off pain Michael had experienced in his right knee area. He immediately went to schedule a MRI for that leg, but couldn't get one done until next Friday, August 13, 2010. So we got a x ray of the knee and he wrote orders for us to get it done in Wichita Falls next week and to start chemo again asap. So we faxed the orders to Dr. Reddy in Wichita Falls to start asap. We have been on the mountain top for the past 3 1/2 months, so God saw that we were a little less dependent on Him and thought we needed some discipline. We are continuing to trust in Him for another battle and know that He is in control.
