Today we went and my husband had his staples removed, all 56 of them! He is healing well and I am so blessed to have him with me! He looks better than before surgert, he has an appetite again and he has a smile! We will see his surgeon on May 4th for pathology report and such! A bit worried but so thankful he is alive and with me!

    Immunotherapy

    I'm about a month into a clinical trial that pairs the immunotherapy drug Opdivo (Novolumab) with a study drug (non-immunotherapy). It's too early to gage any results at this point.

    I'm a little late on this

    But welcome and glad to hear the surgery is behind you guys.  Lots to be thankful for.  Everyday should be Thanksgiving, huh?  Sounds like your husband is doing well, thank God!

    I'll keep you both in my prayers,
