God bless our doctor at Moffitt Cancer Center. We usually see her within an hour of the PET scan and she pulls the scan up on her computer and looks at it immediately to let us know if there is any area of concern. She is always careful to let us know that the radiologist will do an official reading and report in the usual few days time frame but she is caring enough to keep us from that scary wait. We are a two hour drive to the CCC so it is so nice to accomplish the scans and the doctor's exam in one day.

Another thing to put in my gratitude journal!
