Bob-

Don & I were going thru the say "jitters" with Don's 6-month post-treatment CT scan. The doctor told us he would be able to get the results the same day (Friday 7-9-04) and would call us in the late afternoon. We were happy that we wouldn't have to wait the entire weekend...but "Murphy's law" as it is...we received no phone call with the results. So, as you can imagine we thought of a million and one reasons why he didn't call...#1 on our list was that they found more cancer and the radiation oncologist and the medical oncologist were busy consulting each other as to their new game plan. By Monday afternoon we couldn't take it anymore so we called. We just happened to call right as the results were being faxed in and ....Thank you God...the scan was all clear and cancer free.

I am praying for you to receive the same news...and hopefully you won't have to go through an entire weekend thinking of all the worse case senarios.

Good Luck, Lorie
