Good news from Sloan Kettering

After four or five rounds of chemo, Brian had his liver scan last Friday. And when the results came in on Wednesday, we got some very good news. First, the cancer has not spread any further in the last month. Second, the liver has not deteriorated any further in the last month. And best of all, one-third of the cancer is completely gone. Thank God.

Now I don't know if someone who has cancer is ever completely out of the woods. I've heard so many instances about cancer going away and then returning. But the doctors feel pretty good about where he is at this point, between the results of the chemo and his appetite and weight returning.

He will continue the chemo and we'll see what kind of progress he makes from here. But we're all feeling pretty good.
