PET scan results

This morning we were given Barry's test results from his PET scan. The nodules on his lung remain very small/no change. One of the tumors near his liver remained about the same, and the other grew a bit. His doctor has recommended that Barry go to Pittsburgh to a cancer center for a second opinion. This has been arranged for Monday morning. All his scans will be sent there, along with his original biopsy results. The news wasn't as good as I thought it could be, but we don't always get what we want. I do feel good about going to Pittsburgh though. Had been a thought in my head to do.

After fighting illness this week, it's come down to a head cold/cough. Taking claritin D right now.

Been a long day. Signing off computer. Taking Tim to a sleepover tomorrow night: to his buddy's house in LI. He's quite excited.

Barry, Jane & Tim,
Thinking of you all, soak up all the friends and good vibes being in the "old" neighborhood.
Remember all your friends in the "new" neighborhood are thinking of you all!
