Gus’ CT scan was clear. No signs that the cancer is spreading to other organs. We felt confident before meeting with the oncologist that the scan would be fine, but you still love to hear the doctor’s words confirming that.
Gus’ CA 19-9 is continually dropping. Last Tuesday it was 44, well within the normal range again.
Gus refuses to have anything new to take to hunting camp the 24th of October, so putting the port in his chest will be scheduled after Gus gets home. My fear is if he has too many negatives to come back to after hunting camp, he might just continue walking into the sunset and not come home.
Gus will have to start his chemo tablets his last day of camp to stay on schedule. There really is nothing to look forward to once he comes home except endless treatments. Gus wants to add to this that he does look forward to coming back to his wife, family, puppy, friends and hunting camp next year!
