On Tuesday of this week, I picked up the report of my recent PET scan. For the most part, the news is excellent. All tumours except one are stable or shrinking. One of the new ones, first noted in October of last year, has grown by 4 mm since January. This is considered slow growth. It may well be that it will be stable next time I have imaging done. Most significantly, no new tumours have been identified.
It seems that immunotherapy continues to protect me. I am extremely grateful. The side effects of the recently completed treatment are receding except for bouts of fatigue. I can easily manage that! The suffering has been well worth it.
On Tuesday next I return to the storied land of my ancestors to meet the young people that I finished high school with fifty years ago exactly! This will be amazing and interesting! I will be home in Victoria on June 15. Peace and love to all readers from sunny Victoria where summer has arrived very early!
