Medical Forum / Diseases and Disorders / Cancer / February 2005Baz's update (crc)
Dear group, After a long break, there is wonderful news to report. Baz's first post-treatment CT scan and x-rays came back yesterday afternoon.There are _no_ signs of cancer in his chest or abdomen. There is some damage from the radiation therapy, but it's relatively minor, and I'm not too sure what kind of damage it is (Baz was so overwhelmed that he just doesn't remember the details on this). We're grateful. Very, very grateful. Love to all, Morgs > Dear group, > [quoted text clipped - 9 lines] > Love to all, > Morgs Morgs, What wonderful, fantastic news! This is marvellous - all the very best to Baz and you - you must be reeling in shock. Love Sinead >> Dear group, >> [quoted text clipped - 18 lines] > Love > Sinead Yes. Shocked (because we never considered there might be an endpoint--even a temporary one. One day at a time, you know?). Baz developed quite a headache after hearing the good news, but we attribute this to anxiety and relief and Lord knows what else! All the best to you. Love, Morgs >>> Dear group, >>> [quoted text clipped - 25 lines] > Love, > Morgs Morgs Just watch him - some people who get the all-clear reel because they don't believe it and some find it hard to accept. I don't know if Baz did this, but someone I know had started preparing for bad news and found it difficult to change the mindset that it wasn't all over. Sorry to sound a "downer", I am sure that he will live each day with a smile on his face. I just wanted to, I don't know, I just wanted to caution you to watch for it. Fantastic news about his results, what a lovely thing it is to hear of success. My very best wishes to you both Sinead xx >>>> Dear group, >>>> [quoted text clipped - 43 lines] > Sinead > xx You don't sound a downer at all, Sineaad. You offer sensible advice! I will keep an eye on him--he's spent quite a while living under a cloud, and I won't expect him to emerge spontaneously with a whole new outlook. All the best to you, Morgs > Dear group, > [quoted text clipped - 8 lines] > Love to all, > Morgs Good news is always great to hear Morgs. Warm Hugs to you and Baz Alayne >> Dear group, >> [quoted text clipped - 18 lines] > > Alayne Thank you Alayne. I wanted to share--it's so important that we're reminded that there are successes in dealing with cancer. Hugs to you Morgs > After a long break, there is wonderful news to report. > [quoted text clipped - 3 lines] > not too sure what kind of damage it is (Baz was so overwhelmed that he just > doesn't remember the details on this). We're grateful. Very, very grateful. Celebrations are in order ! Hugs to Morgs and Baz What next? Checkup every 3 months? J >> After a long break, there is wonderful news to report. >> [quoted text clipped - 12 lines] > What next? Checkup every 3 months? > J Thanks J. As he's keeping the port in for at least a year, he'll be going in every month for a flush and blood tests. He'll see his doctor on the 10th, and we'll know more about his checkup schedule then. Best, Morgs |
