Well, I don't know what is making me happier, my scan results or knowing that I have such a great support group! First I want to say thank you to Brooks and everyone else for your prayers and well wishes. I liteally cried when I saw the postings. Okay...here they come again...you guys are the best!

Well, my results turned out to be better than I expected! The in my left lung have either shrank (shrunk??) Or disappeared! No new nodules in the pulminary region and no recurrance in the liver, right lung or rectum. No new lesions anywhere else. Oncologist is only slightly concerned about one small area in the left lung so we will continue with 4 more cycles of chemo and then hopefully VATS for the left lung. Maybe RFA, but he feels that is more successful in the liver than the lung. Anyway, two points for us fighters!!! I'm still going to Johns Hopkins on Friday to see what they think but overall, am very happy! Today was a good day. Thank you all so much for being YOU!

    Great News
    Wonderful to hear such great news! Always makes me choke up when I read post like this, not sure why maybe because I can feel your relief, I know how I felt when I got my all clear results, and I dont think there are really any words to describe it other then just plain relief. Keep up the great work!!

    God Bless
