We Have a Plan!

I am pleased to announce that I am scheduled to have my liver surgery sometime around June 27th. Although we still have a long ways to go, we are certainly encouraged by this news. Thank you again for keeping us in your thoughts and prayers. This experience has taught us a lot about the power of the human spirit:)

Friday May 25th

Today we received the results of Jon's second CT scan. The CT looks the same. The tumors haven't grown or spread, which is good news. The liver surgeon is scheduling his liver resection the last week of June. Jon is doing well. We are going to have an appointment with a GI specialist on Tuesday and another with the oncologist on Wednesday.

Sunday May 20th

Jon had his 6th chemo treatment on Tuesday. This Thursday he will have a CT scan. Then our next step is to see the liver surgeon with the results. We are anxious to speak with him and see if he is OK with doing the liver resection in the next couple weeks. Overall, Jon has done well through all the treatments. Thanks for your continual support!!!

5th Chemo Run Done

Yesterday we met with Dr. Flynn..he was very encouraging. At this point he didn't expect the tumors to shrink. He thought everything was looking good, with his labs showing a good response to chemo. Today Jon had his 5th treatment and found out that his cancer marker(CEA) is now "2", which is wonderful news. One more treatment to go and then another evaluation for a hopeful liver resection. Thanks for checking in!
