This will be my last post! Our most recent trip to Mayo was last week. I had a scan and blood work on Thurs and Dr. visit on Friday. After chatting with the Doc for a 1/2 hour we got out of him that I am "probably" disease free at this point (just like most men- very noncommittal)!!! He won't call me "cured" for awhile yet, but we're running with disease free for now. The bone has grown back where most of the tumors were (the spine seems to be going a bit slower), and we also talked about getting the plate out of my leg. Doc pulled up the picture of it on the computer, did a small chuckle and said that it is a pretty substantial piece of hardware and he doesn't think an orthopedic doc would want to take it out, but I was welcome to try. I might wait until he calls me "cured" before we go down that route.
Thanks to all of you who came on this journey with me. I have many new friends and old ones that helped me in too many ways to count. I learned that I'm horrible in expressing my love for family and friends, but I do love all of you and want you to know that I could NOT have done this without all the kind words, prayers and good energy. Much less the babysitting, meals, treats, house cleaning, etc...etc...
All my love,
Liz
