Lysing

God designed our bodies to remove things that don't belong there through the colon, kidneys, skin, lungs, and mucus linings in the nose and ears.

Since the symptoms of swelling subsided a couple weeks ago, KK has been spitting out phlegm without coughing, nasal discharge, or any other signs of a cold. It reminded me of the time right after the apoptosis sneeze back in February when KK's nose kept running and running but she didn't have a cold. There have been a few other times when things coming out of different orifices made me wonder if KK's body was releasing cancer cells.

All of these could very well be signs of lysing: the process of eliminating the waste product of cancer cell membranes that have popped. If so, I am grateful that the waste from the cancer cell die off is being removed before Wednesday's MRI!
