Woo Hoo!!!

We got a call from Dr Stein, she said PET CT Scan looked good!

NO SIGN OF RELAPSE!!!!

He's only 6 months out but I was very worried this time!! Don't know why but a feeling that we needed to get over this hump!

Heart Echo was good(45%?)don't understand the number but we were told it was good,down a little, but good.

Pulmonary Function test, not back yet but the tech thought it was down just a little from March but still normal range.

We go to University of Michigan tomorrow and I'm sure they will explain more.I was at work when Dr Stein called so I couldn't ask everything I want to know.Also tomorrow we start ECP Photopheresis. Here is a web site that kind of tells about it.
