Sigh.Of.Relief.

Hi Friends,

It is a good, good, good day. The C has NOT spread to any other parts of Mark's hot bod. Everyone inhale. Everyone exhale.

This is fantastic news. It is still a rough road ahead, but a road without bulldozers sneaking up on us every second.

There are two options from here: Surgery on existing lymph nodes (soon), or monitoring lymph nodes every month and then a 50% chance of the same surgery. Also included in the upcoming months is immunotherapy. Once you have read up on immunotherapy and understand what it is, please get back to me with laymen details. I fell asleep reading the wikipedia article last night. Actually, what I know is that it builds up the immune system and will hopefully push away those C cells.

We are all SO STINKING HAPPY. We also found somewhere to live...minor details.
