Monday, Oct 12 Update, 5:14 PM

I completed all my scans today. It looks like the tumor is confided to
my chest. It hasn't spread any where else.

Tomorrow, I have another surgery to get another sample from one of my lymph nodes.

I should have a treatment plan by Thursday or so. I'm going to be in Cleveland for a while.

My new hospital roomate is getting his chemotherapy session right now while he's running a meeting on Webex. He says that the sessions make him exhausted, but otherwise he's fine.

Peace and wellness - more blog updates as I get more information.

    Bill,
    That's GREAT news that the tumor is confined. I can't wait to hear that you are on a treatment plan and the tumor is shrinking.

    Bill,
    I gave you the wrong link for Jenny's blog - sorry. Her blog site crashed. However, she has a number of articles in running times. Some of the details are a bit hard to read - so skip these if you don't find them a net postive for you. Her honesty is part of why I like her. She's a fighter and a survivor.

    Here's one about first getting diagnosed:
