Duh.. We knew that. Officially, the update is the PeT shows the tumor in Andy's chest is lighting up brighter than ever. This means active cancer. At the same time, the tumor is marginally smaller than originally scanned. There are also nodes lighting up in his lungs. This could be a few things, including infection. The plan is to have the surgery and get a biopsy of the chest tumor. Andy expects a call next week to schedule the procedure. We know this is a major procedure but not sure of inpatient time or recovery time. Will find out. He wants his Mom there if possible and we will work on that when we have dates. It's unfortunate the Doc is perplexed, but one more reminder of how thankful we are to be with the best medical team possible for this condition.
You are wondering how Andy is feeling. He just wants this behind him and to quit living one day at a time or words to that effect. He feels better, coughs some, and wants to get back to normal life.
Thank you all for your support.
Rooting/Praying for all.
