Whew...finally

Well, this has taken a lot longer to post than I expected.  When we come home from M.D.Anderson we usually know the results of the petscan/endoscopy.  They always do a biopsy of the tissue around the area that they had found the cancer.  We are told they will let us know by the end of the week what the results of the biopsy is.  Ofcourse, they never do.

This time the only way we knew there was nothing showing was to see when we are to go back.  They post our next appointments on our M.D.Anderson page.  So, now I'm pretty comfortable with there being no cancer.

Roy was campaigning for a 6 month interval...didn't work.  Although, he managed to get it to 3 1/2 months.  Tried for 4 months but they compromised with what we have.  I'm fine with however long they feel we can wait.  Since Ryan and family have moved to the Houston area, I would go monthly...using that as an excuse!! 

We have really been traveling recently.  Came home yesterday from Las Cruces, New Mexico.  I leave Friday to go to Austin for a Christmas shopping week-end with my college friends.  After that, we will travel to San Antonio and then to Houston for the last football games of the season.  There again, we feel so blessed that we have been able to follow the football team and watch Justin play.  He has played through a lot of pain.  We are very proud of him.

So, please keep the prayers going.  Our doctor told us they will monitor him more closely until 2 years from the end of his treatment.  That will be July 13, 2014.  Then maybe Roy will get his way...and finally get a 6 month interval..

God is in control and holding our hands.
Linda
