Almost Back to Normal!

Great day today! Kim went back to work after being home with me for the last 2 weeks. My back has improved 1000% and is almost back to normal. A few more days and I think I will be in great shape.

I was happy to be able to sit down in my home office and spend some time cleaning up my email. I had almost 300 messages in my inbox. Thank you to all of you that sent me positive thoughts and prayers. They are definitely appreciated!

Tomorrow, we head up to UW Madison to meet with the Oncology Team again. Last week they ran some tests, including a new MRI and new pathology. They wanted to recheck everything before giving their recommendations. So tomorrow they should be able to give their recommendation. We have a couple options including a clinical trial that involves the dosage of chemotherapy and frequency. The trial has some pretty impressive early results and it sounds like a viable option, but, we will learn alot more tomorrow.

I can't start therapy (radiation or chemo) until 3-6 weeks post surgery. The earliest that I will start will be Jan 21, but more reasonably it will be Jan 28th.

I am feeling absolutely great today both mentally and physically! Looking forward to hearing what the Drs have to say tomorrow and even more excited to get started on the treatment. The sooner I start,the sooner I can knock this into remission!!

I will try an update everyone tomorrow with what the Drs say. Wish me luck! :)
