Oh boy! We were blessed with some great news this past Friday. Justin received a call from U of M. After careful review of his initial PET scan, mid-way, and last scan, they have concluded that the uptake is NOT in his original mass. All of his masses show no uptake. This is a good thing. They will still keep an eye on the area and whatever it is will hopefully resolve itself by his next exam.
So what this means is NO MORE CHEMO!!! Again. It was a bummer that he did have a #13 treatment. I don't think Adam Hubner's wedding was as fun as it could have been, but we had a GREAT time. And his energy returned by Monday. We were able to enjoy a MUCH needed vacation. Once Justin got the call on Friday, I really saw him back to 100%. He said he feels 90% because his upper body doesn't feel as strong as he would like it to. Maybe he'll start lifting weights.
Onto the plans for radiation. We are not sure when he will be able to begin since he has had chemotherapy recently. They usually say 4 weeks to let your body heal. We will find out more this week.
I will post some pictures of our excellent vacation soon!
