The dance
Enjoy thie dance, Great news. Irenotecan and erbitux worked for George also he is stabLe now CEA 1.3 and still dropping. His scans are good for now. He is just on vectibix, however, this is giving him a horrible breakout and his fingers n toes r cracking. He will go to once a month in May n a lower dose. Maybe by end of may he will get some peace.
Hugs George & Dyan

The next five weeks
I plan on not thinking about my cancer, only have one doc's appt. which is in 3 weeks at surgeons for a final contrast scan (the reason I didn't get last surgery too much showed up).
So will be spending time getting school work done, hoping to graduate ethics spring if I get statistics done in time! So for me, school work school work, and more school work!
The freedom of not having weekly chemo and bi-weekly doc visits just seems so wonderful to me right now!
Thank you all for sharing in my happy dance and joy.
hugs
