Stanford Visit

Mom went to visit her radiation oncologist at Stanford today. She had a good visit and the news was great, all things considered. He was pleased with her PET scan and said that the amount of active cancer cells has diminished drastically. There has been no metastasis (spreading) in her body, which is probably the best news of all. She will through another three months of Chemo then be re-evaluated.
Of course she is not looking forward to another three months of chemo but realizes that she can do it and that it really is good news.
We are all looking forward to the family coming out from Boston on Christmas day for a week. There will be seventeen of us in a beach house on La Selva beach.

I will try to update from the house Christmas week.
