Hi-Wondered how you were holding up-think of you daily. Glad your Dad did better after week 1 of chemo-it's a brutal treatment. The waiting is awful, but hopefully you will get the results you are hoping for. I'm still horrified by how many mistakes there are around films, etc. We lost an original set I took to Lahey for months when we needed them for comparison, before they turned up in the room where they are read. They kept insisting they had sent them back to hospital they were done at because they had a mail receipt for something sent there around the time they read our films. We are up for another CT and PET this week after the radiologist wet read his PET after a week saying it was clean, and finally did a real read three weeks later and says the lymphatics are lit up. I just don't understand how someone can wait three weeks to read an EC restage PET, and then not even bother calling the doctor. Very scary, but somehow "guinea pig class" allowed me to settle down enough not to be a crazyperson till we redo tests and get results this week.  So we are going on 3rd set of tests since early December, with the usual jitters that accompany the process happening again. Keep up the good work-even though it's devastating emotionally-you are being so strong for your parents and are a total blessing in their lives. Know we are here for you-just wish I could make it better for all of us.
