Scan Results

Hubby got the official word today on his first post tx PET scan -- all clear!!

He had the scan at 7 am yesterday and we met with the ENT at 930. ENT had already reviewed the scan of the cancerous area -- left tonsil and three lymph nodes -- and told us nothing lit up and it was clear. He deferred to the radiologist for a report for everything below the neck. Hubby got that call right before lunch today. All clear from the eyes to the thighs! Needless to say, we are ecstatic! I wanted to leave work and rush home to hug my cancer free hubby but had clients that couldn't be rescheduled. Home now and planning the celebration dinner -- mashed potatoes!

We could not have made this part of the journey without our CSN Family. Thanks to each of you for your thoughts, prayers, words of encouragement, and kicks in the butt when needed. We know the journey is not over but we still can't wipe these big grins off our faces.

Deb and Dale

    Deb and Dale,

    “All clear”, such sweet words to hear. “Mashed potatoes”, more sweet words. Now that you’ve put a smile on my face, I say keep doing what you are doing because you seem to be doing it right.

    Best always,

    Matt

    Congrats to you both, you had a tough journey but you both made it, Momma Let your Children be Cowboys, because they are tough dudes with tough caretakers. So enjoy those Mashed Potato left overs and the 3 letters we all look forward to NED.

    No apologies needed
    Take any NED you get and run with it! Other people might not be as fortunate, but celebrate your good news, and use that to move on to life as a cancer survivor, not a cancer patient anymore.
