GREAT NEWS!
Friday August 31st we had another cat scan of Nathens head. That afternoon the doctor stopped me in the hall to tell me the results. I had Nahen in one arm and his IV pole in the other hand, then the doc says, Hey I just got the results back from his cat scan.. I was like ok... kinda scared but then she said the radiologist told her that the cat scan was completely normal. I asked what does that mean and she says that there was not any cancer left on his head. She says that it did not show any lit ups spots that are cancerous.. This is great news since he had a large lesion that went from the front of his skull to the back of his skull and also one on his bottom jaw.She said that when we get the Neuroblastoma scan next week that it may show some signs of it still there but it would be very little if any because if it was the same it would have shown up on the cat scan. needless to say I was crying my eyes out in joy and we proceeded to walk down the hall and I was jumping up and down and hugging and kissing Nathen all over. He looked at me like I was crazy and was trying to figure out what Mom was doing. We get a kidney scan, bone scan, cat scan of the rest of his body, bone marrow test and the neuroblastoma scan(MIBG) This coming week. I am very anxious to find out all the results to see how much the chemo has affected the cancer in my little mans body. I will keep you all posted... thank you and please keep praying, I am convinced that it is working.
