Tom doesn't have to see his oncologist until after his next scan in September.

We're truly grateful for our blessings.

    no chemo since jan
    He hasn't had chemo since January...but he also had squamous cancer. Don't know if that makes a difference in success or not. We're not questioning, just enjoying what we have. Maybe a trip to Maine to see the grand kids...who knows.

    Wonderful News!!!!
    Jan,

    That is truly great news!!! I am sure Tom will enjoy the vacation from chemo and visits to the oncology office. I hope his neuropathy is improving now that he has had a break from chemo. I had neuropathy in my toes from Cisplatin. My primary care physician suggested I try B12 supplements. I have been taking them and it may just be time or it may be the supplements but it seems to be improving. Hoping you and Tom have a great summer.

    Best Regards,
