Hi All,

We got the results of Jack's first PET scan and things look good. No distant metastasis and just the usual lighting up around the areas that are still healing. They're going to exam him monthly to check on the swelling and make sure things are progressing.

The REALLY good news is that the PEG tube is coming out tomorrow after 7 months. Jack has maintained his weight for the past few weeks and is building up his ability to swallow a variety of foods.

It finally feels like something is going our way. He's starting to feel more like a person and less like a patient. His outlook is very positive and we're cautiously optimistic.

I'll keep you all posted and appreciate all your support.

Regards JoAnne
