Friday, April 18, 2008

Just a quick update before the weekend and the start of school vacation. Rick got rid of his bad cold and was able to go to school all but Monday this week. He has been feeling really good, and he’s very active, running around the yard last night with his brother for an hour. He's glad to have the week off and he has some special plans.

I spoke with Dr. Herrington from Dana Farber yesterday and she is somewhat surprised but very happy that he’s feeling so well between the tumor and the chemo. She also told me that it's possible the new medicine is already slowing the growth of the tumor. We'll take "stable" for now.

So we’ll count these as good days!

Next MRI will be around 3-4 weeks, and we are back at Dana Farber for chemotherapy Tuesday.
