Hi-We're doing okay. School is going welI. I transfer my anxiety there. Had new A&P2 professor. Very laidback after intense perfectionist last time. Want massive knowledge from the last one, but know this one suits what's happening in life now. Allowed myself to feel sad and depressed over it for a day then realized how inflexible the last professor was, and how miserable and stressed I'd be and it all became perfect. I won't allow myself that luxury with the EC. PET was Tues and see oncologist Tues to talk it over. I'm sad we're caught in this place again, and feel partly responsible even though I know I'm really not. Have always made sure I had all CT and PET reports, and only got the early December CT a few days ago. They never sent it to his primary care and if I had followed through to be sure she had it (which isn't my job) he probably would have been able to be fixed up with a smaller surgery instead of what became a large Christmas emergency. He was doing so well. I'm encouraged because he's hungry again and slowly putting weight on, so I hope to regain the 10 lbs he lost with surgery. He made the shift after tongren class Saturday evening. Also started doing noon cancer conference call on Wed and I saw he had a lot more energy afterwards, so he'll do it again today. Just wish I had a few weeks of time to work with him like this because I feel he would be okay if the surgery hadn't knocked his immune system down. My prayer is that PET shows no metabolic activity and spots shrank in the week or two after CT. I know it sounds crazy, but if the tests showed that I could convince oncologist to give me a few weeks to do tongren before chemo because I don't want to go there again, but want him to have every chance at survival. So many spots in so few weeks, after months of clean scans...and I know that's where she will be coming from. I can see he is really on the mend right now, and becoming himself again (or the new himself). His attitude is really good and he is enjoying that he is feeling better each day. In this moment everything is fine.
