Well after the holidays, freezing cold weather, a busted up back, living on pain pills, turning 45 years old for hells sake, the first PET scan has come in. Good news. The cancer was not in the lungs, almost completely gone from the lymph nodes, no cancer in the surrounding stomach area, and there was significant reduction in the cancer residing in the liver. The chemo really kicked some butt this time. No new treatments in the forecast as the new protocols do not match up with my situation. I will be taking another 4 rounds of chemo and check again in April.
Thanks to all of you who pray for me, it must be working. Bonus for me as I am so glad to be here sitting on the computer thanking you. I hope you don't mind keeping this relationship for a few more years - I like being here.
Thanks again,
Jeff
