small mercies

Salut, mes amis. Guess what? I have some news that is not horrible!

Normally I like to make a proper anecdote, with suspense and story arc, but I won’t make you live through the whole day with us. I’ll give it to you straight up:

Val’s PET scan, in the words of our pulmonologist, “does not show any evidence of cancer outside of the chest.”

Can I hear an amen?!? No extra cancer! No cancer besides the cancer in the chest that the CT scan has already revealed. Tomorrow Val is scheduled for an MRI, to double-check her brain, and then Thursday we meet with the oncologist.

Lots of hope and celebration in our house tonight!

Deborah
