Got Hank's PET/CT results today, no evidence of metastatic disease! Meaning the multiple liver mets found on his original scan are completely gone! The scan still indicated some moderate metabloic activity in the primary site, but the Dr kept reiterating that everything else is disease free! The Dr and Nurse Practicioner had big smiles on their faces, I think I was just in shock, then asked a million questions. I'm not naive, I know what can happen, but this is the first time I've felt like I can breathe in months. I am hoping that now he knows that the liver is, at leat for now, healthy, he might reconsider the surgery and get rid of that stubborn tumor once and for all! Giving him some time to just absorb the first good news we've had before I bring it up.
