      Monday was an awful day. Went in at 715 for a 4 hour procedure for 2 mets turned into a 9 hour procedure for 6 mets. Dr said they got them and they were barley visible. Still I’m thinking its spreading everywhere mon was rough by tuesday we both were emotionally exhausted.

      Wed morning we go in for kidney scan and chest cavity scan. We walk in dr office and dr high 5s Lynn. I’m still wondering so he shows me the scan from 3 months ago it was 9.8 cent and its glowing then he shows me new one it not glowingi say and dr says that’s cause its gone. What’s in chest cavity is almost gone also we shared lots of tears and hugs with our dr. This drug is awesome.

      Gamma knife can be used again and they will continue to monitor brain closely but for know we smile. Lynn says he’s slowly crawling back. He says keep fighting keep praying and keep beleiving.

      Lots of love
      Lynn husband to bikerwife
