Hi Guys: Well, I am going home next week (yippee). I just got the results of the latest c-scan and my liver has grown to 100% and looks beautiful. The clincher, no metastasis. There are small nodules in the lungs, but it is felt that they are likely scar tissue. I need to do a little more chemo when I go home and that will hopefully be it. I feel like I have a second lease on life and cannot wait till my son and I get home to do all the mundane little things that used to drive me crazy when I was healthy.

    I'm happy to read that you are going home. The liver is amazing, I was so interested as my surgeon explained to me about the liver regenerating itself after resection. Take care, Audrey.
