You remember the words "One small step for man, one giant leap for
mankind..."
The areas of enhancement on my tumor have "decreased slightly in diameter,
volume and intensity" according to the neuroradiologist. And the overall
tumor size is unchanged. A small improvement, but the first step in that
direction (and first good news) in two years. And there is no increased
swelling which had been happening. The enhancing areas were the biggest
worry because they are areas the tumor was probably changing into a worse
type.
Now I just have to stay healthy until the end of June so I can do the next
four rounds of chemo and really pummel this sucker. My white count is down
but not too bad. Next round is the 24th - 28th.
Heading home to open a really good bottle of wine. Wishing you all a great
evening!
