Another Clean CT Scan

My semi annual CT came back clean. I saw my oncologist this afternoon. He said if my next CT comes back fine, I can got to annual CTs. Right now I am at 2 years 8 months cancer free. Each year without a recurrence the odds drop. Actually most recurrences of colo-rectal cancer happen in the first couple of year he said. When I hit 7 years cancer free, my chance of a recurrence drops to the general population statistics for the cancer.

I always get his last appointment of the day. That way we can talk about our past Disney trips or the upcoming trips. His wife converted him. I helped. He is going again at the end of May. He thinks he is staying at BCV. There will be 8 of them. Both sets of grandparents. I encouraged him to take his wife to Yachtsman Steakhouse since they have built in babysitters.

Just a little PSA. If your body starts acting differently for more that a week or so, please go see your doctor. I waited. If I had waited longer, I might not have made so many wonderfully wacky friends. Or become the Disney geek...I mean aficionado I am today.

Congratulations. I am happy for you!!!!:)

Last Monday my dd (2) had her 6 month CAT scan and it came back clear as well. She is 18 months past chemo. I know the anxiety before, during, and after the scan. Waiting next to the phone for the results is even worse. I hope you the best! And good luck!!
