Update

Well. I reported all clear in June but things change in the blink of an eye. On a completely unrelated scan, an enlarged lymph node was discovered. Not the results we were hoping for from my biopsy: Kidney cancer cells (diagnosis and surgery 9 years ago) have resurfaced. I had a CT scan of pelvis/abdomen tomorrow and a brain MRI yesterday and will see an oncologist on Tuesday the 12th (the day my wife and I were supposed to return home to Ireland.) I'm really hoping no further involvement shows up in those scans.

So. We still don’t know what my treatment will be until we see the oncologist, or where I would do treatment (Iowa or Ireland). We're taking a break this weekend to see our son and daughter-in-law, then back to clinical reality.

As always, I so appreciate all your messages, prayers, light, energy, support in all kinds of ways. And as with my first surgery, I ask that there be no militaristic, battle, fight, etc. language about it. I will live into and through this, loving my body as it is. Take care ~
