WoW, Thank you for this support. We moved from Indianapolis to Minneapolis Sept 12. Bill was in sales and has returned to part-time pastoral work in this area. Lived here 28 yrs ago! Transition was physically hard for him. He just now left the house for Univ of MN to have PET. Terri, he just saw a Dr C Lee, rad onc yesterday. She seems nice but all new docs? Scary. Of all things, I'm a research nurse but know nobody here in Twin Cities. Feeling pretty vulnerable and out of my comfort zone. I work from home so cancer is....everywhere. Can't believe we have to wait all weekend. So, PET could be false (+) Charm? I hadn't thought of that... So, I'm sitting here at home working and reading the charts of other newly dx cancer patients and waiting on the destiny of my own. The ironies of life.
