A big amount of anxiety has now been resolved. I think I got
the best news I could have gotten from Dr. Gore this morning. No changes in the
treatment plan (sticking with 6 with only 1 left to go) seemed silly to hope
for with the concerns about the abdominal fluid buildup continuing to return. I
was resigned to hearing that I would have to switch to harsher chemo drugs, or worse, that I
would need more surgery. Happily, Dr. Gore did not see any signs of more tumors
on my scan and decided to add just 2 more treatments. So I should get my last
round of chemo on July 16th instead of June 4th. I’m sorry
that I don’t have any interesting details to share, but since it is now almost
the end of my day, I am very tired and can’t really think of much else to say…
I will add that being stuck at home a lot a bit longer than
originally planned isn’t quite as bad since I always have one of my best
friends to keep me company: http://youtu.be/5yyRmfgannY
