ParticipantFor those of you, especially Southern Route, who know my wife Pat – aka Hobbit. On Nov 9th she was diagnosed with Triple Negative Invasive Ductal Carcinoma Breast Cancer. She had her first round of Chemo yesterday. Prognoses looks good, however she will not have any hair for the run, which she plans on making. So far she is feeling well and in good spirits.

KeymasterOh man, Pop. Wish I could give Hobbit the biggest hug ever. I know for a fact that she’s got the strength of a lion in getting through this. But that doesn’t mean there won’t be tough times–as you and she already know. Like Ziptie, we can’t wait to see her in May and hug her in person. You be sure to tell her that we’re all here for her and will do anything to make the Run better for her. Give her our love.

ParticipantPrayers and warm thoughts going out. I’m an 2019 FNG so you don’t know me yet but I’m a survivor of male breast cancer and went through the surgery and chemo route. Not fun but it’s doable. Make sure she stays up with the Neupogen or similar after infusion therapy to keep those white blood cells on track. Hair grows back! Virtual hugs!!

ParticipantUpdate on Hobbit. Yesterday Pat had her last dose of strong chemo. Now it’s back to MD Anderson next week for more tests and an evaluation. The last time that we were there her tumor had shrunk 48 percent so we are hoping for more good news. So far she has not had any of the major side effects of chemo except for losing her hair and a little lose of energy at the end of the day. The next plan is one dose of a different type of chemo once a week for 12 weeks and then surgery, but that is subject to change. Thank to everyone for all of the prayers, posts, texts, cards and calls. She is planning to personally thank everyone in May.
