Health Up Date...

 WooHooooooo
Today was a BIG appointment day.  
Appointment #1:  7:45am was my surgeon.  He said I was in the very lucky smallest percentage who got the BEST possible results.   "Complete clinical results" meaning all cancer is GONE!   At this point the tumor is completely eradicated and nothing left but scar tissue.  I will NOT be having surgery.  As you know with cancer there is always a chance of it hiding under the scar tissue or cropping up as a different type.  I will be getting internal exams and MRI/cat scans every 3 months for the next 1-2 years.  My next appointment is 12/14.  Meanwhile we are to live our life to the fullest which is all Linda needed to hear.  I see trips  and "FUN" days being planned as you read this!!

Appointment #2:   2:00 Wound care.  As you may have guessed, torching the tumor has also torched my innards.  The only way to heal these internal burns are with the hyperbaric chamber. This was a long appointment.  Bottom line, radiation is still active 6 months after the last treatment.  Nothing can be done to help heal until after January 11.  Then I am to clear my schedule from January through March for every day, 2.5 hours inside the chamber, 5 days a week, at least 12 weeks.  

After a long wound care meeting we celebrated...

I am SO thankful for all the support, the delivered Blessings and your faithful prayers. Definitely the longest nine months of our lives. But you all helped us through. THANK YOU.
