All Good in Indiana



We drove the 2 hours to IU today. It was nice to be on a college campus again. Lots of nice brick buildings and young adults walking & biking around. We met with Dr. Foster, who was the urologist surgeon that we were referred to. He reviewed the lab work and scans that we brought. He defiantly thinks observation is the only route to do right now. Since the PET scan didn't show any live cancer activity we have to assume the nodes that showed on the CT-Scan are dead cancer and will get reabsorbed by the body in time. Basically every 3month CT-Scans for the 1st year is the plan of action! We are glad we got the 2nd opinion and are happy to say that nothing more is planed for Dan medically for a while. After a couple rounds of good CT-Scans we can officially say he is in remission.

What a great day! A truly wonderful day!
What a beautiful picture of you two. Both healthy and free from so much stress.
Now, Dan, that PhD will seem like a breeze. Ha Ha Ha, got to always have humor.
Love, Dad

AWESOME! I knew it would be good news. Dad is right about the PhD being a breeze now. Ususally that is a traumatic experience, but it has nothing on recovering from cancer. I'm so happy for both of you.
Love, Heather
