No News is Good News

I really shouldn't remain so quiet on the blog for so long. The "you still alive?" emails can be quite unnerving! So I thought I would take an opportunity to report a little good news. Or rather, to report the lack of some bad news. Yesterday I had my three month check up with my oncologist. After a relatively poor showing last week with some PET scan results (compared to a PET scan done a year ago), I was not looking forward to what I was going to hear. It turns out though that I have remained completely stable over the last three months. No new reported tumor growth which in my boat is fantastic news. One of Leroy Sievers' recent blog entries discusses needing some good news once in a while. I can certainly relate! I almost feel like we should go out and celebrate.
