We had another call from Dr. Stennitt. Bone marrow biopsy's were clean- Hurray for that- We'll take what we can get.
The PET Scan, however, revealed that there was a mass forming by the pancreas. Which would put him at a stage 3. The mass is not big enough to be classified as a tumor, but showed potential. Nic will be starting Chemo on Wednesday, & that will prevent the mass from turning into a tumor. He will do treatments once every 2 weeks. & go in for another scan after 4 months. We should notice the tumor in his neck decrease in size after 2 treatments.

So will he actual be getting treatments for the entire four months between now and the next scan? Glad the bone marrow biopsy was clean. All the news seems to be the best we can hope for...glad for that.
I know how hard everything is for you guys. All this shouldn't be happening to such a wonderful person- Nic, be strong, and as hard as it may seem, try to stay positive always- You have love and support all around you, always know that! You are all in my thoughts and prayers always..
I'm glad to read this blog, to know how everything is going.
