Scan Results

We talked with the our main Oncologist yesterday evening about the full body PET scan and the results are fairly good.
Michaels lungs are clear and his liver tumor looks to be mostly dead from the Chemo.

The Scan did pick up one lymph node that is cancerous in the vicinity of his liver so the oncologist is going to talk to the surgeon about taking out that lymph node during the surgery next week.He says the lymph node does not have a lot of veins going into it and Michael will be fine without it.

Michael has blood tests this morning to check his levels in preparation for surgery on the 28th. We will keep praying the levels come back up to normal and the surgery can go ahead on the 28th.
God Bless
Russ and Cathy Dyer
