Another chemo day has come once again and the doctors say that Christopher's blood counts are all good. His next CT scan has been scheduled for early Feb. and I don't know about anyone else, but I am on pins and needles to see what everything comes back with. I'm praying that his CEA numbers are in the 400's or lower and that they find even more shrinkage.
Keep us in your thoughts and prayers!

Chemo: Round XV
Yesterday was Christopher's 15th round of chemo and I have to say this has all become a routine in our daily lives. Everything is looking good - his number are where they should be and Christopher is in really good spirits. Again the doctors tell us that as long as there is shrinkage, we will keep on the same treatment schedule.
Christopher will go in for another CT scan in Feb. Don't ask me why, but I can't wait for this Feb. scan. They will test his CEA markers again and this time there will be the biggest gap since the last time they were tested - 3 months. So lets hope and pray for a big drop in these numbers (remember the target number is 6 and Christopher was at 633 in November - however that is a still a big drop from the 3300 he was at when this all started.).
