On Tuesday October 11, 2011 Leanne (Chin) was diagnosed with breast cancer. This blog will follow her journey. It will share the peaks and valleys along the way. But it will also serve as a way to communicate prayer requests and praises. Join us as we partner with Chin and fight along side her for she "...can do all things through Christ who strengthens her." Phil. 4:13

The meaning behind Chin ... There is a Chinese restaurant in the Twin Cities named Leann Chin. While Leanne was attending a basketball camp in middle school, a fellow camper had a bag from the restaurant. This camper made the connection between the name of the restaurant and Leanne's name. And the nickname Chin stuck!

The Plan

It feels silly even writing that. Knowing full well that the plan will change at least 30 times in the next few months. But, we have a game plan and we are thankful for that.

Here is what we know:

  • There was no cancer in the lymph node that was tested yesterday!
  • Deb will have a PET scan and an echocardiogram (hopefully tomorrow) to make sure the cancer hasn't spread anywhere else in her body and that her heart is ok for chemo
  • Deb will have chemo first, then surgery, and then radiation if necessary
  • Deb will likely start chemo next week and will have 4 treatments; 1 every 2 weeks and then 12 weeks of a different kind of chemo
  • Deb will have a port put in in the next couple weeks
We are asking for prayers for the following:
  • Peace for Deb and her family & friends
  • Wisdom for the Dr's and nurses
  • Clear PET scan and good results from the echocardiogram 
  • Maximum effectiveness of the chemo
  • Strength for the long journey ahead
