Good New!! Chad's last CT scan of his chest came back normal! We were so relieved to hear this great news. They said it must have been bronchial, something due to that awful cold and flu he had just before surgery! YEA!!! We love good news! Chad is well on his way to surgical recovery and now we're all set up for him to start Radiation Therapy in about 1 week. We were so thankful to visit with the oncologist as he was very informative and gave us all sorts of great news like...Chad's radiation will be 18 doses=18 days. He will go M-F for 3 1/2 weeks. Dr. Lee prescribed the anti-nausea medication which will be a huge help. He did say that Chad will be very, very tired but that once he stops the treatments, he should get back his normal energy level within a month or two!!! EXCELLENT REPORT!
We again want to thank all of you who have emailed, phoned etc. We feel so blessed by the many prayers that are offered on our behalf! We have definitely felt the Lord's hand through all of this and can't help but love the growth that comes through trials!
We are so thankful that Chad's cancer is treatable and curable! There are so many that are so much worse! This has been such a blessing for our family! Thank you again!
