dchurchi Posted January 10, 2007 Share Posted January 10, 2007 Thank you for checking in Maryanne I appreciate it. Here is an update on my Man, we are both doing pretty good. Alan's bone scan results came back clear, no cancer. As thought the new tumor is pressing on the nerves in his shoulder. So that was a big relief. Alan started radiation yesterday and they are also doing Hyperthermia treatments. Apparently Hyperthermia "cooks" the tumor killing the cancer cells, but no healthy cells. So on Tuesday and Fridays Alan's treatments are about 2 hours long. Radiation treatments will be for a minimum of 5 weeks Alan is in much better frame of mind and we are both ready to face the beast head on. Thank you everyone for your continued prayers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trish2418 Posted January 10, 2007 Share Posted January 10, 2007 Great news, Debbie. Speaking from experience, it's easier to keep fighting once you know the prior treatments are working well. I'll be praying that the future treatments knock out the remaining junk. Trish Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
