The best news we could get...

I had the PET scan today. Also had a CT scan. The scans were done this morning. I got the results this afternoon. Dr. Williams said that the cancer has not spread and is localized in the tumor he took the biopsy samples from. The tumor itself is so small that it does not show up on the PET scan at all! All that needs to be done is to have surgery to take it out and that should be the end of it! Surgery is scheduled for next Wednesday March, 10th.

This is the best news we could get. This surgery should be less intrusive than the last one. This time all they have to do is just take the tumor out. They won't be taking any lymph nodes, so the recovery time should be quicker as well.

Looks like we caught this one in time. YAY!

No chain, no lock and this train won’t stop. We got no fear, no doubt, all in balls out!
