Back from the wizard

We just got back from seeing the wizard and he said........ I have a heart, I have a brain, I have courage and I HAVE A CLEAN SCAN. I now can look forward to the joy of being radiated in a few weeks. Dr. Daneker was great as usual. He said my scan looks good as does all the healing from the whipple. I asked what to expect next and he said I should talk to Dr. Dubovsky, the oncologist, but to expect the radiation/chemo next and then scans every 3-6 months. The next big juncture is 12-18 months out to see if there will be any metastatic recurrence (didn't know I could use them big words). That would come from any microscopic cells that were too small for the scan to pick up. But in the words of Roger Daltrey from the rock opera "Tommy">>>>> "I'm Free, yea I'm Free and freedom tastes of reality".

Thanks again for all the well wishes and warm thoughts and positive energy flows. It all worked. Next stop is Cat's big 50 on Monday the 15th.
