Diane, we always get a CD of the scans to take to our doctor in San Francisco. We're waiting for the radiologist to write his report which we hope to have on Thursday so we're not going blindly into the doctor appt. Our doctor at UCSF taught us how to read the scans so I put it into my computer yesterday and was able to see the cancer is still there in all of the locations from before. What I don't know is if any of it has become smaller because I don't have the measurements until the report. It looks to me like there might be more lymph nodes involved than before
I'll keep you posted. We're not sure what the choices will be if the chemo isn't working.
Tom is really thin, pale and tired. His digestive system is a mess.
Last night I had a horrible nightmare a strange man was grabbing me from above as I slept. I screamed and screamed until Tom was able to wake me up by calling my name. I sobbed and sobbed when I realized it was a dream and cried myself to sleep when I realized that could happen to me again and he might not be there. I am so afraid to be alone. I wish John-Paul could be here all the time, but that wouldn't be fair to him.
John-Paul was recruited by a company that has offices in Portland and Chicago, plus other cities, to do a big project over the next couple of months. The recruiter was in Chicago. It could turn into a job where he is allowed to work remotely. He might have to visit their San Francisco office from time to time so we could see more of him. I'm so excited for the opportunity for him to network with many more people and to make new friends. In particular, he would not be alone in his efforts in case he wants to take some time off for vacation or travel, etc.
I sure hope you hear good news from the company you really want to work for soon and that the other interview comes about over the next few days.
Keep me posted and I'll let you know what we learn on Friday.
I saw on Facebook that Kathy's ex-husband has passed away. So sorry for her girls...
