Big Day

Eric's blood count continues to look good with his platelets just above 300 this past Friday and he's now off the Prednisone. Today he gets blood work and his restaging PET scan with the first appointment of the day at 11:00. The PET scan will tell us if the chemo is working. It will be compared to the previous scan done in December and we'll find out if things are better, worse, or the same as previously. Of course, we're hoping for the former. We'll visit with Dr. S. tomorrow to get the results tomorrow.  That's a 10:00 appointment.

If Eric's appearance and physical condition are any indication, he seems to be doing excellent and he feels great. You would not have the slightest clue, if you saw him, that he is battling cancer. He hasn't lost his hair, he's maintained his weight, and he's as handsome as ever.
