Wednesday, 2/21

I know I said I wasn't going to post anything until after my appointment next week, but Dr. Christian's office called with the final pathology of the tumor. They said:
  • It is a "medium grade" cancer. When I asked what that meant they said, "There are three types of cancer, low, medium, and high." Therefore the medium is better than high, but not as good as low.
  • The tumor was 1.7 cm with clear margins.
  • As previously reported, there was no cancer in the lymph nodes.

My cough is better, but not completely gone. I don't know who is more ready for it go away, me or Tom!

Shawn,
We are glad that your sugery went well.
Sophie and I have had colds for the last two weeks, so we can relate to the coughing. My coughing got so bad that Lori started sleeping on the couch. Lori and I will keep you in our thoughts and prayers. Talk to you soon.
