REPRIEVE
The visit to the Oncologist was today. After waiting 6 weeks without chemo to see
what the little critters would do, the answer is: not much.
Some tumors have shrunk, some are indeterminate, and some
are growing, but not rapidly.
So the doctor’s advice is to take two months off chemo and
check on the critters then, with a PET scan this time, because he knows he
needs a better picture, but he also knows it can be difficult to get the HMO to
agree to the expense. We’ve done very well
with our HMO so far, so I can be
optimistic.
Two months without chemo is like going on vacation. Especially as Janet is retiring more and
more. Something we can look forward to
in the dark wet winter.
Best to you all and yes, intentions are things.
