Mike here: I arrived at work and got the call even before I sat down. It's the surgeon that removed the tumor from Lisa's abdomen... [inhale deeply] Turns out the vaccine that is being made for Lisa has been contaminated with a bacteria rendering it useless. That's the bad news. The good news is that they still have enough of the tumor to try to make another vaccine. Yea. However they don't have enough white blood cells (or stem cells - I feel like I keep getting them mixed up) So, she'll need to go through the apheresis procedure again. That procedure requires an uncomfortable IV or catheter in the leg for a few days.
So that's the latest as of this morning. We've a lot questions and we'll get those answered in the next day or so. I suspect this will all work to our advantage somehow. Keep your fingers crossed. We'll update soon.

O Holy St. Anthony, gentlest of Saints, your love for God and Charity for His creatures made you worthy, when on earth, to possess miraculous powers. Miracles waited on your word, which you were ever ready to speak for those in trouble or anxiety. Encouraged by this thought, I implore of you to obtain for Lisa health, strength and to be cancer free. The answer to my prayer may require a miracle. Even so, you are the saint of Miracles. O gentle and loving St. Anthony, whose heart was ever full of human sympathy, whisper my petition into the ears of the Sweet Infant Jesus, who loved to be folded in your arms, and the gratitude of my heart will ever be yours.
