Still Waiting

It has been a good & full day. They sure don't give a person much time to worry but we did manage to sleep until 10 a.m.; I don't think I've done that since being a teenager, and I doubt Dave ever did! I guess we were pretty tired. We did meet with our PA and team nurse, but Dr. Holmberg was unable to join us. There really isn't much to report, but we should have the schedule date for the radiation oncologist tomorrow. Sara, our team PA, was very positive and showed us the PET/CT scan. We couldn't see the mass ourselves, nor could she. She says the density is less, so it doesn't "light up" as much as it did. That is also to our advantage. Another encouraging sign was that our nutritionist actually dismissed us as of today. Dave is still a little low on fluids, so he needs to work on that. His weight is stable and every day he seems to eat more. Can you imagine his desire for Spam and now he likes peanut butter and mayonnaise sandwiches(at least they are easy to make!!) Please don't tell him I told you!! HA! I'm trying to figure out why these food choices. I wonder if it has something to do with his childhood and the fact that he has to have all of his childhood inoculations given in a year. His skin is even "baby-soft". It's amazing. I also met someone else today from Whitefish; Skip and Shelly Arbuckle, and we had a nice visit this evening. They are staying here in the hotel for a few days. I love it when I see a vehicle with a Flathead Valley license plate parked here. There is someone else here from Bigfork, but I haven't met them yet; I'll make it my goal for tomorrow!
