It's a Beautiful Day - 3/19/2012

I heard this song on the Today show this morning which I have now been singing all day! 

I had my oncology appointment this morning and then went out for lunch with my mother-in-law, Kay!  The appointment was full of good news.  First, I will be starting the temodar treatments again tonight for the next five nights.  Second, I got my results of my PET scan which was last week.  The PET scan will show tumors in my body - previously showing us the tumors in my hip as well as my liver.  (It does not, however, show brain tumors - that is done only by an MRI.)  The results were again GREAT... my tumor in my liver is gone and my hip tumor is still healing.  I had radiation as well as the Ipi treatments which they figure are still working on my hip.  Good news! 

I am very anxious to get back to work so I asked my oncologist when I could have another MRI.  Since my last one was at the end of January, I will have another in the middle of April.  (While I continue to BELIEVE that I will get good news on brain tumors from my next MRI, I figure it would be best to get my results of that and know that everything is okay with the brain before going back to work and then have them say that I need further treatment, etc.)  So, hopefully within the next month, I might be able to go back to work!

Thank you for your continued thoughts and prayers!  I believe!!!!  (I wonder if I should start singing "I believe in miracles...")
