Dennis had his CT Scans done Monday and we went to the oncologist today.
NED, Happy Dance time, scan looked good. We still have to keep a good eye on on a
abdominal infarenal anuresym that he has about 3.9cm but they said it looks stable.
We are both so happy about the scan. Thank you all for your support.

Thank you to all the wonderful friendships that have been created here.

    WooHoo
    That is such wonderful news. It is so great to see that he has gotten such great news from the scans. It sounds like he has been through so much but has faired well from it. You certainly deserve to both do the happy dance - naked if you want. Yipeeee!

    Wow great news
    This is great news for me to hear. My husband was DX last November and had six inches of his colon removed. He started chemo with Avastin, Oxlplatin, 5-FU. He will had #5 treatment this Wednesday. He had liver mets ( extensive they say) and a little in both lungs ( like sand) and a small spot on his adrenial glad. Hearing news like this gives me hope. I really need it somedays. Thanks for sharing Paula G.

    so wonderful!
    What wonderful news! This is the second NED posting I've seen in the past day or two with a stage IV patient. As a stage IVer myself, this definitely gives me so much hope in my own situation. I've done well, but can't claim NED status YET...!
    You take care and Celebrate!!

    God bless,
    Lisa
