Good News, We Hope: OT, Probably Long, Boring and all the other warnings

We went up to see the Neurosurgeon, Dr Ewend, at UNC (Chapel Hill)
today, and he said that he doesn't think that Rob's tumor is coming
back. 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.

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.

OT, okay. Long, somewhat. Boring? Definitely not! It sounds like
wonderful news, and we'll keep the prayers and purrs coming to keep it
that way!
