Ya da, Ya da - will interpret the images, write a report, and deliver the results to your doctor. This process usually takes 2 to 3 days.

Here is a link you should be able to follow for information on one of the next steps in the process  - a PET scan. That is set for Thursday. This is designed to show the 'flow' if you will of any further metastasis. And the process it might be traveling? That is about my best understanding.

Then radiation therapy to start on Monday. Again, much hustle with little bustle. But I will keep the moaning to myself. Still on the positive I would like to think.

FROM THE EYES TO THE THIGHS

So today's scan was done to hopefully pin down what is moving where and how and shit like that. Had gone into the Radiation office quickly earlier to have final mask fitting for the process to start next Monday.

We'd met with Dr. Shiff on Wednesday, and his offer was to return in about 2 weeks. See how the Radio is doing, and try to chart a Chemo plan. I am guessing surgery is pretty much out. Instead, I will for sure quit smoking - ha - and do what I can to at least stop any new cancer growth.

Still not getting the warm and fuzzies about the full process, but I keep an open mind. Of course no one commits to a finality, or single absolute phrase that will make it all come to end. Still - my problem and I keep working at it.

Laying low this weekend to try and prep for the treatment. Colin had mentioned coming over for the day, but we will have to see how the weather goes. Of course there is the rest of life to contend with.

More to follow.
