As many of you know, my stepfather had stage 4 throat cancer and underwent both chemo and radiation treatments. He had his "after treatment cancer scan" last week and got the results today. There was no sign of cancer at all. This is doubly great news for us as he had decided that if there was any cancer left he was not going to do any more treatments.
Although he still has a feeding tube, he has begun to eat a little regular food too. This is wonderful because it was possible that he would not be able to swallow at all. If he can eat enough on his own he will be able to have that tube removed.
And the last bit of good news is that he is already starting to put back on the weight he had lost. So far he has gained 2 pounds since the end of his treatments.
We are all doing a happy dance here!
