Glen has finished his last round of chemo and went in last week to have a PET scan to determine what progress has been made with the treatments. He got the results back yesterday and we have great news to share. The high grade lymphoma is GONE, the low grade lymphoma is in REMISSION, and the spot on his esophagus (which the doctor thinks may be scar tissue) is smaller than it was in the last scan. He has an appointment with the doctor who did the esophagus surgery on December 13th to check out the spot and make sure that is okay.
At this time, there are no more chemo treatments scheduled. Glen will have blood tests done every 3 or 4 weeks and the doctors will follow the results to determine if any further treatments are needed. We pray that he can start to gain back his strength now and feel much better.
Thank you again for all of your prayer support and we hope that you and your family have a great Christmas holiday. I will continue to update the blog to let you know how Glen is doing and also to keep you updated on our family.
