1st year after diagnosis - test results.

Denny received his first yearly colonoscopy and CT scans since diagnosis Sept 2009... all came back clear. He had had lab/blood test every 3-4 months which has came back clear also.

ONC said he does not need to come back for 6 months and then they will do blood tests. ONC stated that his test have always came back so good that he feels 6 months should be fine for his next follow up appointment.

Which is GREAT because we can now go to our Winter home (Hawaii- yes we are new snow birds) for 6 months and and not have to worry so much.

We purchased our Winter tropical hide-a-way 4 months after he was diagnosed which was a hard decision to make. But Thanks with help from this board and family and friends who told us to go ahead with our dream and not let "C" in the way of living our life to the fullest and fulfilling our dreams. We thank you for that as we almost said forget it can't do it, but we are glad we did and can hardly wait until we get to leave..

We're leeeaving on a jet plane (Nov 7th) don't know when we'll be back again..(Come on you guys have to remember that song...

But yes, still do always have that worry in the back of our minds like everyone else does.

Best wishes and health to everyone!

Aloha,
