My CA-125 number was at 12 this week. I am not worried about it bouncing around like this though. I asked my doctor about it one time and she said that the bouncing around is fine - it is if the number started doubling each time that she would start to get concerned.

The other day my husband and I were talking about how we felt strongly for some reason to move to the house that we are in and we were wondering what that reason was. Then a day or two later we were at church and I was up on the stand because I was playing the organ for Sacrament Meeting when the bishop went up to the pulpit and announced that a neighbor of ours that had just had a baby had been diagnosed with ovarian cancer. My husband and I just looked at each other and I had an overwhelming feeling come over me that this is one of the reasons that we are in this house at this time - so that I can help be there to support our neighbor and her family. After church DH and I went to the hospital to visit with her and I had written her a letter beforehand about some of my experiences and feelings at the time. I also gave her my contact info and the link to this blog and told her to feel free to call me anytime for help or with questions.

Today at my appointment I talked with my doctor and nurse practitioner about my neighbor and they gave me some contact info so she can try to get in to the doctors at Huntsman. Other than that my appointment went fine. It is nice having the older kids out of school now so I don't have to find someone to watch MJ for me.
