Good evening and hello all,
Felicia and myself met with Dr. Wong this morning to discuss
the results of the CT scan that I had last week Monday. If you recall the last
visit we had with him you may well remember that he (that is Dr. Wong) told us
that the mass in my abdomen might possible be dead cancer or scar tissue and
now this scan showed that is indeed the case. Dr. Wong said “it looks to be
residual garbage or tissue” that is left over from the cancer I had. This last
scan showed that the mass is still shrinking and that all my affected organs
look to be normal size. At one point Dr. Wong would still like to see that mass
removed so I will be getting CT scans every three months until the surgeons
think I can have the surgery without it being life threatening or affecting any
organs. Dr. Wong has come to the conclusion that the mass must be “residual tissue”
because the mass is still shrinking on its own without treatment and because I
am physically doing so well. Dr. Wong hardly recognized me and the nurses we met
up with only knew who I was because they saw Felicia. In the next little while
though I will be referred back to Dr. Bard to have a different surgery to
remove the testicle where the cancer originated from because that is still
cancerous.
This is better news then we could have ever hoped for and though we
still have some things to get through and possibly some surgeries yet we are so
very much thankful and happy about all this. We thank our heavenly Father that
He has so richly blessed us! The doctors can try and take the credit and can
say that it is what they did through their knowledge and the chemo they
prescribed but in the end we know that our Father has granted this and that He
has answered all of yours and our prayers in the way that we had asked. So let us remember to thank Him for all of
this and also ask for continued healing and strength.
Rob and Felicia
