Big Wave Dave

Happy Friday Party People, The gang went in to v isit  Dr. Shohara yesterday post PET scan on Tuesday. Monday? ... Whenever.  Status is good. Overall cancer lesions, tumors, and what not are maintaining from our prior scan. There is one little shit lymph node in the upper part of the stomach that is slightly larger. Keeping an eye on it but Dr. S doesn't seem to be too panicked over it.  Because the cancer is only maintaining and not shrinking since the prior scan, we will not be getting the chemo break that we had planned. However our chemo cycle's will go from every 2 weeks, to 3. Allowing for more inter-chemo partying. We will reevaluate in January.  So far Dad is experiencing a few side effects from the chemo, but nothing out of the norm. There was a morning a few weeks back that he was experiencing some stomach pain after an early breakfast. Dr. S was slightly concerned and asked Dad to elaborate a bit. We then came to the conclusion that we will be removing 2 pack

Round 11, no KO  Our round by round analysis hasn’t been to eventful! The fight has largely been void of action, a few flurries and dusts ups with blood work, but we’ve managed to stay in the ring! Next week a schedule PET scan – we’re counting on a huge uppercut to the old cancer foe! Round 12 and the final cycle this fighting season, is scheduled for September 19, I have no doubt it  will be the number one ticket on pay.per.viiieew!
