It is with the most ecstatic joy that I am able to post the following update to our community of loved ones:
CORRINA HAS BEAT THE MOST AGGRESSIVE FORM OF MALIGNANT BRAIN CANCER!
Following an MRI performed yesterday, we received word today from Corrina's neuro-oncologist Dr. V that there is no sign of any remaining tumor. The fact that the results of the MRI improved since the last one she took over five months ago indicates that there is now zero chance of glioblastoma.
The rarity of this occurring is unequivocal. Dr. V has seen remission to this extent in less than 20 individuals over the course of his multi-decade career.
The fact that this is Corrina's journey is testament to how special this woman is. She is an inspiration to all of us and continues to teach in even more profound ways than ever.
Who knows if it's the result of her body's resistance to the initial infection, the sea cucumber treatment, her predominantly vegan diet, or our love and prayers. It's all of those things. Corrina's immune system has kicked into high gear to show what is possible in the face of the greatest enemy.
I am truly speechless over this news today and, admittedly, it's still settling in. We've been living with an unknown future for so long which I've gotten used to. I've accepted (and buried) a tremendous fear just to get through each day.
With today's news, that fear has been lifted. We have a solid view of our road forward. Sure, we never know what will happen one day to the next, but at least we're now in the same boat as everyone.
Corrina will live a healthy, happy life...together, with all of us. Love truly heals all.
