Shrinking

Today I went to see my surgeon to have a marker put in to show where the tumor is in case it shrinks so much they can't find it during surgery. The doc used her ultrasound machine to see where to place the marker. She took some measurements and the tumor has shrunk already. Almost in half!

There are some other things that are still a little weird and the doc indicated it just means they have to think harder about my case. I will have another PET/CT scan (full body scan) before my next chemo treatment and that will give us a lot of information about my tumor and the lymph nodes.

But, in the mean time I am going to roll around in this good news with my lovely little family, please join us.
