The Future is Looking Bright

6/5/09 – I had my CT Scan today. I have an appointment with Dr. Feldman to get my results on Tuesday, June 9th. I am feeling very strong. I just want to hear the words that I am still in remission. I wish I could fast forward time to June 9th and hear my results.

"Cast all your anxiety on him, because he cares for you. Discipline yourselves, keep alert. Like a roaring lion your adversary the devil prowls around, looking for someone to devour. Resist him, steadfast in your faith…… And after you have suffered for a little while, the God of all grace, who has called you to his eternal glory in Christ, will himself restore, support, strengthen, and establish you." (1 Peter 5: 7-10)
6/9/09 – Today was a very good day. I had an appointment with Dr. Feldman (Dr. Goy is in Europe sharing all of his excellent work and practices with the medical community around the world… what a great guy!). I was informed that my CT scan was 100% clear and that there is absolutely no sign of any enlarged lymph nodes. I am still in remission. Also, I am not showing any residual effects of my chemo therapy treatments. This is great news. I feel like I am back to full strength. Sure I need to exercise more… but who doesn’t? My scans were so clear that my next scans do not need to include a PET scan. It just needs to be a CT scan. I will only need a PET scan if there are ever any signs of enlarged lymph nodes in the future. My next CT scan is scheduled for Wednesday, September 9th, 2009. I have an appointment to review my scan results with Dr. Goy on Friday, September 11th, 2009.

My future is definitely looking brighter.

"For I know the plans I have for you," declares the LORD, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future." (Jeremiah 29:11)
I will update this blog again after my September 11th appointment with Dr. Goy.

More to come…
