Mom talked with Sherrie (nurse) at Dr. Porubcin's office on Monday, and she (Sherrie) is going to check into the chemo research project that is being conducted in Iowa City. Mom may be a good candidate... but having Sherrie call and ask the right questions is the next step. 

For now Mom is going to stay on the Tamoxifen. Hopefully that will keep the count from going any higher. Her next blood test is in four weeks and then after that will have a visit with Dr. Porubcin to talk about more options. 

In the meantime fingers are crossed - hopefully she won't start having symptoms otherwise.
