One day down...

So, I slept well and had a pretty good day at school. I was a little nauseated during the day, but the medicine they gave me seemed to help. So far, so good, I guess.I have about 24 hours on the 5-FU, then I get a two week break!

I forgot to mention that the scans I had last week (CT and PET) came up clean. At the moment there are no other areas of cancer visible. The plan right now is to do two or three months of chemotherapy and then repeat the scans. If there still is no other trace of cancer, then we'll probably do radiation to get rid of the tumor on my lung. That would likely be followed by another round of chemotherapy with hopes of preventing any microscopic areas of cancer from growing.

My brother, Mark is coming in town this weekend, so it will be a good holiday weekend. Thanks to everyone who continues to support me in many ways, and for keeping me in your prayers.
