It’s the news many of us have been waiting for, and it comes from Will Roberts’ mom Brittney after the family chatted with doctors following 2 days of scans just days ago.
Will Roberts is fighting bone cancer.
Months ago Will had part of a leg removed, and doctors later removed spots on Will’s pelvis and a femur.
Here are the findings of Will’s weekend scans direct from Brittney:
“When one leg still manages to take up the whole bed. I don’t understand the physics… but here we are (picture here).
“He sleeps while we carry the boring part!!
“We spoke with Will’s oncologist after she reviewed all scans and amended reports.
“The scans did show four new small spots:
• Three on his good leg
• One in the pelvic area
“Nothing appears immediately threatening such as if they were in the spinal area.
“The plan moving forward is as follows:
-Continue the daily chemo pill
-Proceed with spot radiation to a few areas if approved
-Repeat scans in 4–6 weeks
-Still await MEPACT immunotherapy where there is currently a shortage
“One important factor in understanding these results is timing.
The scans were completed about a week before Will started the chemo pill. With how aggressive his cancer had become, it is very possible that some of these spots could have developed or become visible during that short window before treatment began.
“This next scan period will give us a much clearer picture because we will be on Cabo continuously the entire time between scans, allowing his doctors to better evaluate how his body is responding to treatment.
“For now, we stay the course.
We treat what we see.
We watch closely.
And we keep marching forth one step, one scan, one prayer at a time.
“Thank you for continuing to love, support, and pray for Will and our family.”
Thanks to Brittney and Jason for sharing Will’s story with us- I know they appreciate prayers from around the world.
