Finally - some good news!!!

Postby Phil in Az » Wed Feb 15, 2006 6:55 pm

I had a PET scan yesterday, and according to the results - my liver, lungs, and lymph nodes are clean!!!!! There is no cancer in any of those areas. The only cancer found was the original one in my colon. They still do not know if i'll need chemo, it's 50/50 at this point.

I feel like a 10 ton weign has been lifted off my chest, and for the first time in over a week and a half - i feel like i truly do not have a death sentence on my hands.

I still have to go through the surgery, but as far as any spreading, or multiple tumors, i'm in the clear!!!
