Stable, toward the good side...

The scan showed no growth and even a little shrinkage, so we are pleased.

It's still a long way from me being operable, but we are moving in the right direction. I now need a biopsy of the spot on my liver, hopefully to rule it out of the cancer equation. That will happen in a few days, then we'll plot the next treatment based on those results... either more chemo or a chemo/radiation combo...

So my work continues...

  4. I was teaching my students about line, so I told them about healing sticks; I told them all about you. You are an inspiration to us all.

  5. David -

    Happy thoughts directed your way. My father has to have a second operation for complications from his first for esophagus cancer. I understand now all too well how much we take health for granted. That and starting my PhD is why I haven't been around much. Know that I think of you often.

    My thoughts to you and your family, Leslie
