Scan results favorable

I had my follow up CT scan November 8th. Rand and I met with Dr. Kilgore at UT Cancer Specialists today. I was giddy and nervous...expecting the worse. How pleased we were to hear the words..."the lesion in your left lung has grown slightly, from 16mm to 19mm. Your abdomen is stable and so is your right lung and your kidney has improved since the stent was placed." Dr. Kilgore explained that it's possible there has been no growth depending on how the CT sliced the image. So, either way, it's not bad news. My POC at this point is to hold off on chemo. I was told that the chemo would make me sick and the results of the scan didn't warrant jumping into it at this point. He also didn't want me to be sick during the holidays. So, we will re-scan in January. Dr. Kilgore again told me that the chemo won't cure me, but will buy me time. He suggested that I "get my affairs in order, then put that behind me and live life doing things I enjoy. Continue working, get dressed up and and make myself look pretty, stay active and positive." He said that unless I become symptomatic, chemo can wait. So, I will do as he suggested. Enjoy each day, continue my adjunct therapy, try to remain positive, and laugh as much as possible. Today was a good day~
