PET SCAN

On Monday of this week (the 17th) Tom had his post-treatment PET Scan which is a test to see if all the cancer is gone. As previously posted, his initial exams checked to ensure that the localized cancer cells were gone and so far, so good. Now, these PET scan results will let us know if they caught the throat cancer before it had the chance to spread and if it did spread, that the chemo administered this summer got rid of it.

We are anxiously awaiting results which should be available later this week. This is it. I'll keep you posted. Send good thoughts.
