“Today I would start Kemo,” she wrote on Instagram April 4 2025. “I had my cold hat, my cold socks, snacks, blankets, medicines, entertainment ready. My aunt Lindsey flew in to be with me this weekend for recovery. But yesterday I got the call that my pathology results on my liver, chest and lymphs came back as her2 negative even if my originals were her 2 as a halt of my original My original as a Kaiser was her 2. On the way to my doctor to discuss how this happened, what testing is needed and what this means for my new treatment plan. “
As a result, Katie noted that it “sounds like Chemo is off the table now.”
“I should be excited about it,” she added. “But in two months I have continued to get an updated diagnosis three times. I think thoroughness and to have a second medical opinion have been in my early cancer stage.”
