Ct Results

Hello all,

Just wanted to pass along the latest information from yesterday's CT scan. After 8 rounds of chemo, there is no new evidence of cancer. A couple spots that were on the liver have disappeared and what is left are one small spot on the liver and one slightly enlarged lymph node. According to the scan, those two spots appear to be calcified, basically hardened cells that are not multiplying as normal metastatic cancer cells would. So, it could be said that there is no evidence of active disease, which is great news. Therefore the plan, is for me to finish my chemo with another two rounds, and in the meantime consult with the liver surgeon to decide how to deal with those two spots and from there I might be lucky enough to say goodbye to stanus and resume normal pooping procedures. Like usual we'll keep posting the cancer news, as well as the usual regarding our daily lives. Thanks for continuing to check in on us and take care.
