Great News

We were at the doctor's office all morning. The great news is that the PET scan showed no sign of cancer anywhere else in Troy's body. As you can imagine we were overjoyed. The oncologist has officially renamed Troy's cancer as orapharyngeal. He said this is good news as well due to the prognosis being better. They are now sending his slides to the Mayo Clinic to review amongst other doctors/pathologists. Troy should be starting his first dose of chemo next week (Wednesday) unless they come up with something different between now and then. Fortunately, Donna (Troy's mom) will be coming on Tuesday.
