Chemo Round 4

Really can things be going this good? Yes they can and they are! The past 2 weeks have been GREAT for Steve. After Steve's 3rd round of chemo he just kept saying to me, "I still feel good when you think it will hit me?" Well I am so excited to report he NEVER got sick this time around. What a great two weeks it has been! Last week he did shave his head, not completely bald but shorter to try and help with the shedding. But he still looks great and nobody can tell he is going through chemo still. YEAH! Today we met with Dr. Beck and things are going better than we ever imagined. Steve has gained 2 lbs. so he is about to his base weight and his blood work was OUTSTANDING....his labs were the same as they were prior to treatment! So based off how well he is doing we are moving forward and we will meet with the Radiation Oncologist next Wednesday and have a follow-up PET scan on October 3. Get this...if his PET scan comes back clean we will only have 2 more treatments of chemo! Yes that is right that means Steve would only have three months of chemo instead of the initial six mouths we thought he was going to have. If the scan comes back with drastic improvement from his first scan but not clean then he will have four more for a total of four months and if it is improving but not as fast as we are expecting then six, but she really feels good about things...which explains why we are meeting with the Radiation Oncologist next week. So please send lots of good thoughts and prayers that his scan is clean and we will have all of this behind us before THANKSGIVING!!!

THANK YOU, THANK YOU everyone for all your support and prayers they are paying off!

Love,
