A big VICTORY in this long war

Scar Tissue!  The latest biopsy came back all scar tissue and the MRI showed again that the mass is stable in size.  Yahoo!!!  Now it’s really time for champagne.  It’s going to be a great summer focusing on fun and health.   

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 Dr Jenny delivered the great news with caution that the biopsy is only a small snapshot of the mass and she is still concerned that the cancer can take hold in other places in his body, so we will continue to do frequent scans and test.  For now we are very optimistic and so happy.  Go Spartacus!

National Lampoons “RV” Vacation

3 families in one RV?  We really do like each other a lot.  We had a great whirlwind vacation with some great friends to the Grand Canyon, Sedona and Lake Havasu.  Lots of laughs and adventure.  It was great to go a entire week with no TV or video games, just lots of big and little kid fun.  

 

Last time I wrote we were facing a rough decision to start another year of chemo.  Well we decided that the results were not conclusive enough to put Max’s body through another year of poison so we have chosen to wait a month and repeat the MRI and the biopsy.  We are hoping for some good news later this week.
