Well some very good news to report. This week has been very busy with me getting my scans (2 CT's and 1 PET) to see how the chemo took. After visiting with my doctor today he said that the outcome was ideal and excellent! So now the next step is radiation that will start in the next few weeks. I will first go and get fitted for the piece that will hold my neck in place during the process of radiation and then go from there.
These last 24 hours have probably been the most difficult in my life. The not know before going to see Dr. Cook was almost too much to take. Your mind can play a lot of tricks on you. But it is good to know what when I am feeling like I am about to explode it is good to hear Bobby reassure me that no matter what we find out we'll get through it; and we will!
So on to the next phase of knocking the cancer out of my body. My oldest sister Mary is coming in February to help watch Audrey since the radiation will be a daily event for 3 weeks or so when I get it all started. All the help I have received over these past few months have really just been a blessing and it is so appreciated.
As of now I know I will sleep very well for the first time mentally probably since all this started. It will be such a great feeling!
Glad to hear the good news! Ideal and excellent are wonderful words to hear from a doctor!!!
