PET SCAN TODAY

Jon had the PET scan at 7:00am this morning. Although we are tempted to have the results faxed to my office we are awaiting our appointment with Dr. Chue on Tuesday. It is his policy to only review scan results in person and we want to respect the "Chue Master"

Although Jon remains tired and his stomach still hurts he is in excellent spirits with the possibility of being at the end of this road. We are both optimistic about the results of the scan and all of our future plans. His first goal is, of course, to go backpacking. He's had a lot of neuropathy in his hands and feet this month (another chemo side effect) and needs to get the swelling down so he can put on his hiking boots! He worked a few hours today (ok, really he slept in the truck while Kyle did most of the work) and he's home napping right now in hopes of meeting Staci, Octavio, Kelsey, and myself at the Mariners game tonight.

Tomorrow is a family barbq for everyone to meet Stacis' beau, Octavio. We have enjoyed our time with both of them and they are graciously creating a Mexican Feast for the family. I would have to say that Staci is happier than I have ever seen her!
