March 18, 2014 Good News!!! Oh happy Day!!!

It finally happened!!! We went to the huntsman today to get results from the MRI (brain scan) and the long and short of it..... NO NEW tumors!!! Thats right no new tumors and they couldn't even see some of the ones that have been radiated and the ones they could see were all STABLE!!! 

Ok yes as always there is a bit of bad news but not much!!! His hemorrhage is still there, in fact it is a bit bigger, they think it is due to the fact that right by the bleed is some swelling.  But the doctor was not overly concerned.  As long as Ron doesn't experience regular headaches, they are going to wait and re-scan again in 2 more months.  

We met with the pain doc.  And they have the pain in his hip under control right now.  And Ron is actually feeling better than he has in a really long time!!! 

He started his new (chemo) drug and so far has been handling it really well.  We hope it's working as well as Ron feels!!

So for now we will count our many blessings, and be soooooooooo thankful for all we have been blessed with! 

We meet with his regular doc next week for labs and check up then his long infusion day for his Pamidronate (for his bones).  But things are good.  

We have plans to go see Logan and Lauren the first of May and we are keeping our fingers crossed that he will be the way he is now which is really pretty good.  And we can have a fun time with the whole family!!! 

Its a Good no FANTASTIC DAY!!!!!!

FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT
