FANTASTIC news!

I saw my oncologist this afternoon and was really stressed out waiting for my appointment. I had to wait a long time to see him, too, because he was running late. But it was worth it -- the CT scan actually showed that most of the tumors are continuing to SHRINK! My spleen tumor has shrunk 40% just since April! The hip looks better... no new tumors. This was good news beyond my wildest expectations! I had figured the best I could hope for would be stable disease. I don't think I've ever left his office happier. :)

And I don't don't have to go back again for 2 months!
