The latest scan is CLEAR!!

Postby papajedi » Mon Feb 08, 2010 8:40 pm

Not only that the only spots left from bone mets on my lowe spine have regressed again, are unremarkable !! My onc/doc kept using the word astounding for the sesults. We had been praying very specefically that the spine mets would dissapeer which they are slowly doing :)
