HO HO HO!!!!!! Merry Christmas. I know its a bit early, but the good news is that my body is responding to chemo well and there is significant size reduction and activity reduction. They noticed some lumps on my thyroid though, but it too has reduced from the last scan. The lymph nodes around the colon and liver have also reduced in size and activity.
The guy who comes to see me on Fridays just came to say hello, and his new chemo batch can't stop the cancer. They can only hope to slow it down to give him as much time as possible. Sad news, I felt a bit guilty being happy when he has such opposite news. He and his wife just found out that their 3 year old daughter has type 1 diabetes and will have to be on insulin for her lifetime. It has already taken her pancreas in the battle.
It sure sucks being in a room full of sick people, but then I have to remind myself that I am one. We will take the victory today and ride it for awhile and see what the next 5 treatments will do.
Talk to you all later,
Jeff
