All clear!

A year and half post treatment and there is still no sign of any residual or renewed cancer! More blood work mid-summer and then another round of CT scans in the fall...big sense of relief!

Things are hectic as the semester winds down but I did have a most interesting morning today...in response to a student request I conducted an informal dialogue on intelligent design. Small audience with a mix of faculty and students but it prompted me to add a new page to my website...have a look! /dps

Another round of tests....

Today marked the first day of another week of follow-up tests and doctors appointments. Started out with a head-neck CT scan today and will have a chest-abdomen CT Wednesday morning. Then some lab work and a couple of oncology apoointments to interpret everthing. By next Monday I should know where everything stands. At the moment, I am feeling confident that everything is going well. It has been a year and a half since my diagnosis and surgery and the odds of anything coming back decrease dramatically over time. At two years this cancer is generally considered cured! More soon. /dps
