However, they're having Rob's MRI films reviewed by a group of specialists this afternoon, and we'll find out what they say tomorrow. If they agree with Dr Ewend, Rob will be put back on a course of Temodar for as long as he can tolerate it, up to 12 months, just to make sure the stuff is good and dead. If they decide that it is warranted, a biopsy will be done to see if it is the same type of tumor as before, and chemo will be decided on based on the biopsy. Either way, it looks a lot better than we were afraid of. Your purrs, prayers, good thoughts, and blessings have struck again. Thank you everyone. Sending some extra strong meatloaf purrs that the specialists agree with Dr Ewend. -- Steve Touchstone, faithful servant of Sammy, Little Bit and Rocky [remove Junk for email] Home Page: http://www.sirinet.net/~stouchst/index.html Cat Pix: http://www.sirinet.net/~stouchst/animals.html |

Pam, Rob, and the Fayetteville Seven I'm guessing at this point pretty much anything would be so much better than you were afraid of. I hope and pray and purr that Dr Ewend is right. Sometimes the good guys do win. Jo |
