Calendars are great - every doctor appointment - added to the calendar (you can only imagine what our calendar looks like).
Tonight we were sitting talking about a doctor appointment I have scheduled tomorrow...........and Ron said, "Hey, I wonder when my PET scan appointment is?"........I joked and said, "Gosh, I hope you didn't miss it?"
He checked THE CALENDAR - his PET scan is scheduled for TOMORROW @ 8:00am in Marietta (all the way across town in Atlanta rush hour traffic).
When Ron experienced pain 13 days after transplant - an MRI showed a bile duct leak and a mass on his lung. A few days after the duct repair surgery; a biopsy showed a benign mass. Due to all the anti-rejection drugs he's on - IF there's a 'seed' of cancer anywhere in his body - it will "sprout like flowers in the springtime" Dr. Johnson told us...............so, Ron is having a PET scan to verify there are NO OTHER growths in or on his lungs. We'll get the results next Tuesday.
Thinking positive thoughts!
