Small Bump in the Road

We finally heard back from Bethesda regarding the clinical trial, and found out Bobby's not eligible at this time. The good news is the reason he's not eligible is that his disease is stable.  Of course, it's stable because he's been on treatment every week for the past 9 months, but since it's not progressing, he doesn't qualify.  We were hoping that the trial would be something that would reverse the tumors not just keep the status quo, but we are trusting that it's just not the right thing to do right now. 
We'll see Dr Keller soon, and will make a new game plan.  In the meantime, Bobby feels great and is enjoying the chemo break. Thanks for continuing to keep up with us, and for praying for clear direction and good decision making for the next step.  Love, Juli

My apologies if this is the third time I've posted....you know I'm not the brightest when it comes to these things. I know that you must be frustrated as plans keep changing, but rejoice that Bobby is feeling good between treatments. Praying for you both and also for Dr. Keller as you continue to plan the next course of action.
