Sugeon Number One

We saw Dr. Hart this morning and he was "pessimistic" about Jon having the liver resection surgery. You may recall that in the CT scan from June the largest tumor was next to a major blood vessel. As far as we can tell that particular tumor hasn't shrunk by much so we'd have to see some big improvement in the next CT scan to make this a possibility. Jon is scheduled for his next scan on March 13 with a follow up visit with Dr. Hart afterward. We also see Dr. Precht the following week. Looks like nothing will be happening in the immediate future.

Jon actually feeling pretty good today. After our visit to the surgeon he had acupuncture and then put a cabinet together for me at Bally Fitness. He actually made it through the entire day without a nap! Jon plans on doing some coyote hunting this weekend and enjoying this time away from chemo. Kelsey, Levi, Ericka, and I are taking Maelie to the zoo :)
