Her statement here:
Immunotherapy first essayed proved unsuccessful, she said. The chemotherapy course, however, is yielding positive results. Satisfied that my treatment course is now clear, I am providing this information.
Snip-
On Friday, she said a July 7 scan showed the liver lesions had been significantly reduced. I am tolerating chemotherapy well and am encouraged by the success of my current treatment, the statement said.
I will continue biweekly chemotherapy to keep my cancer at bay, and am able to maintain an active daily routine, she said. Throughout, I have kept up with opinion writing and all other court work.
