Thats so cool! CongratsMattButts said:Update
Just thought I'd pop in with the latest update. On Monday (World Lymphoma Day, as it happens) I had my latest PET scan. The next day my oncologist reviewed the results with me, even comparing it side-by-side with my original scan from February. The difference was dramatic. The latest scan is clear, showing no evidence of active cancer. Just one tiny little spot she thinks is scar tissue from a broken rib. (I did have a broken rib in 2009, so I tend to agree.) WOO HOO!!!
I love getting good news… ’specially from my oncologist!
Matt!

End of the Road
I've reached the end of the road, or at least the end of this one. My last chemo treatment was on Sept. 30th and the side effects have been minimal in the past months since they switched me from ABVD to AVD chemo (or, as my onc calls it, "chemo lite").
I've updated my photo on here because the weight I've gained back is showing in my face. I found three face pics of myself and created a comparison, but I don't know how to include pictures in these posts. Now all I gotta do is keep smiling so these chipmunk cheeks don't turn into jowls.

I was nervous to read your post with the title. I am so happy that it meant good news. Many congrats, that is just wonderful. I remember the time we were very worried about you. I can really see the peace and relaxation in your face. Hoping for many many years of that.
Best wishes, Becky
