Greetings from Houston

Hi all.

We just got back from a late dinner at the Olive Garden (after another trip to Target this afternoon)

So – about this morning’s appointment. It wasn’t the best news – but overall, it’s positive. Eric’s scans indicate that he’s ‘stable’ – there’s been no significant growth (which is awesome). On the negative side, there hasn’t been enough shrinkage (of the tumours) to proceed with surgery at this point. However, Dr Kaseb was impressed with how well Eric tolerated the chemotherapy (keep in mind that this is the most aggressive treatment offered – and that they recommended he be admitted to hospital, as opposed to doing it as an out-patient). With surgery still very much the goal, Eric will continue with chemotherapy to accomplish this.

Tomorrow, at 09:30, we look forward to meeting with Dr Vauthey’s assistant Steven Wei (who should have more insight regarding the possibility of future surgery).

The three of us are exhausted – but otherwise in great spirits and very much enjoying our time together in sunny Texas. Continued thanks. We’ll keep you posted.
Good night y’all
