One step forward ----

We had good news today at Dave's appointment with Dr. Hunt. The CT scan done on Monday revealed some shrinkage of the mass!!! That means that the SALVAGE chemo that he had May 1st is doing its job. However, when he woke up from a nap in the recliner, his mustache was on his chest!!! He called me at work to tell me and we both had to laugh at that one. I'm sure glad he has such a good sense of humor. Dave's appointment for his chest catheter (Hickman) is Tues. the 22nd at North Valley hospital.

Appointment

Today, Dave had a CT scan and had an appointment with the surgeon to put in his chest catheter. He will have that done at North Valley Hospital on the 22nd (it is an out-patient procedure). He's doing well and is anxious to get everything started in Seattle.
