Hello all,

First of all and foremost I want to thank all of you for the comments and feedback. We go very early in the morning to have blood work, 30 minutes later to have the Scan and then meet with the Oncologist 2 hours later. We are so fortunate to be at a clinic where we can get the results the same day. Duke Cancer Clinic. Our results from the scan 3 months ago were very positive. Most of his nodules in his lungs had shrunk by two thirds...thanks to the Sutent. We are so greatful that he is tolerating the drug so well. Please keep us in your prayers on our travels during rush hour and that we get good news!

    Welcome to the club
    NED = No Evidence of Disease

    Icemantoo = My father and grandfather were in the retail Ice business, hence I am an Icemantoo. Nothing to do with the Ice Tongs used during my surgery or my gang affiliation.

    CT Scan
    We had great news today. They did a chest, abdomen and pelvic scan. All is the same as the last. Nodules in his lungs have not grown and no new mets. The oncologist is so very pleased with the way he is handling and responding to the Sutent. Hope to be on it a long time.
