Tommy Boy had another PET Scan last week after he finished his 4th cycle and we had an appt to go over the results with Dr. Javeed on Monday. The good news is the cancer is still continuing to shrink, and is remaining less active. The spots on the lung and the liver are still completely resolved (no trace of cancer) and now we can add the affected (or is it effected?) lymphnode to the resolved list! The main tumor in the esophagus/stomach junction has continued to decrease in activity, and the spoton the left femur also has slowed down in activity! Yay, yay, yay and yay! Looks like we have all kept up on our 7 & 7... and it has paid off! :) Sooo... please continue to do so- because it is WORKING!
In other news... my dad and Renee leave Friday night for thier dive trip in Cozumel. My dad's plan is to do something crazy, like 17 dives in the 5 days they can dive! Luckily he is feeling pretty good and has some energy back since he hasn't had a chemo infusion for 3 weeks. So keep him and Renee in your prayers while they are gone and fingers crossed my dad has enough energy to do all he wants to do!
Thanks again everyone for all of your continued prayers and support!

Thanks for the update Whit! Good news is Good news!!
ReplyDeleteTom and I had a wonderful time in Cozumel. I haven't seen him so strong or eating so well in a long time. He made 18 dives - every single one and apart from being cold, from the chemo, in the room, which was 76 degrees ("it's like a meat locker in here")you'd never know he had cancer....well, as long as he was wearing his ballcap. We had a blast and are planning another dive trip...just got to figure out where...
