    PET Wait
    Yeah, doesn't waiting just suck? Hoping and praying for a 'no glow' for you. Hey, since I read that they are actually using some dogs to sniff certain kinds of cancer, that will make a whole new type of 'Pet' scan, won't it. Actually, why not? We have Cat scans, PET scans, why not Dog scans?

    You seem to be a beacon of hope to so many. And, so many are behind you wishing you all the best!! Look forward to hearing your report. But, from your example, you beat all odds. Thank you for always not being a statistic..

    Sniffing Dogs....
    LOL, I'm glad that doesn't work for my two chocolate labs...sniffing out cancer.

    If they had that ability, they would be a whole lot of people that visit my house with anal cancer....LOL.

    Pooch scan part 1
    I bet they don't find anything. My crystal ball says you are WAY too tough to let those beasties in again. Next time though, for immediate results, maybe you could go over to Skiffen's house for a "Lab" test.
    Big, HUGE outpouring of good vibes coming at ya!

    No NED but not bad

    Got the results of my PET a little while ago and the doctor was impressed that there was no change in the nasal area from 6 months ago, while it is not NED no change is just as good. But now a new problem the PET is showing some areas in the Lungs that are suspicious, however he does not think it is cancer. He wants to do another PET in 3 or 4 months just to check but at this point he believe it is something caused form aspiration rather than cancer.

    He also said I don’t know what you are doing but whatever it is just keep doing it.

    Thanks you all for your prayers and support look like you all will have to put up with me for some time to come.

    Good.
    My doctor also tells me he doesn't know what I'm doing, but what ever it is to keep doing it. I am tempted to tell him my secret. It's breathing. As long as I keep doing that, I should be ok. ;-)
