And so I felt comfortable with California because my kids were so little.
I didn't want to be out of the country for weeks at a time, you know, without them.
And so we went there and I did a bunch of holistic treatments to boost my immune system.
Went on a very strict ketogenic diet sponsored by Good Ranchers.
I know.
I didn't have to worry about my meat, my protein source.
Like, it was clean.
Like, it really was nice.
And, you know, everyone at this center ended up wanting some of it, too, which was sweet.
But anyways, yeah.
And so I was there for about three weeks, came back home, felt just better than I had.
And I don't remember the last time I felt that good.
Just I had lost 30 pounds of baby weight.
You know, everything inside, all of my blood tests and my scans, everything was just very, very good.
And every good result I got back, I was just like tucking in a way like, yes, more good news, more good news.
And then when I went back to MD Anderson, the plan with them was to do two rounds of immunotherapy, which I don't know if you know much about immunotherapy.
So it's not like chemo where chemo is very harsh and kind of kills everything while it's killing the cancer, hopefully.
Immunotherapy is more of a systematic, like it wakes up your immune system to fight and it lasts for longer than chemo.
And so we prayed about that as well and felt good about that option.
So we were to do two doses of that and then surgery to remove the tumor.
