Last night there was a special on Discovery channel called Living With Cancer. If you didn't get a chance to see the show I highly recommend it. They are doing a rebroadcast of it tonight at 6:00 PM Mountain time (last nights show was live). I'm not a big Ted Kopple fan but he did a good job with this. He did a documentary on Lance Armstrong and his best friend. The Lance story is fairly well known and the part I found most interesting was his interviews with his best friend. He was very open and really laid it out there; feelings, thoughts, the whole thing. The only thing that they do not really touch on or get into is the caregivers of cancer patients. Well worth a look.

Tomorrow is another appointment with the oncologist, just a checkup as the healing continues. We will proably discuss and schedule the PET/CT scan. That is our next big milestone in the journey. It will be around 4 1/2 weeks from now or 8 weeks post the last radiation/chemo.

Going back to work is getting closer and closer. This will also be discussed tomorrow with the doctor and then I'll make a decision on when I can go back. More normalcy! That is a good thing!
