in Colorectal Cancer #1
My husband Pat got his CT scan results back this morning for his chest, abdomen, and pelvis. One of the two lesions in his lung got a tiny bit larger and one lesion in his liver also got a little bit larger. All else remained the same size and number. He has numerous lesions on his liver so we are taking this news pretty well. We were hoping for some "shrinkage" but at least there was no spread, especially to his lungs. His oncologist is keeping him on the CPT-11 and Erbitux and he will get another scan in a few months. I mentioned Pat went back to work two weeks ago in a previous post. He has not worked for 16 months and is happy to be busy again. He drives a truck and is still waiting for some forms to be signed by his docs before they let him drive but that should happen sometime this week. Pat's spirits are good and he is doing much more than he has been able to do for such a long time. Today is our 30th Anniversary and I am still crazy about the guy!

    Yes...
    Our sweet golden Abby, passed away in early Sept, from cancer and renal failure. We were lucky to have her in our lives and she is greatly missed. We adopted this little guy Milo, a border collie mix, and he is a great walking buddy.
