Treatment & a Scan
So Josh had a scan on Tuesday to see how things are going with the Chemo treatments. The results weren't what we were hoping for but they are good. The mass in the beginning was at 6.6 and now it is 2.3. And the lymph node was at 2.1 x 1.7 cm and is now 1.2 x 0.8 cm. So it isn't gone, but it has shrinked significantly. He also had another treatment yesterday. There is one medicine that he gets during his treatment that is what they call a push treatment so they push it in his IV instead of having the drip bag, it isn't a very fun one and Josh gets a little nausous during it. Well each time it gets a little worse and this time he had to stop the nurse because he was going to throw up. So that is getting worse with each treatment but the nausea is getting better after. So I guess we will have 3 more treatments and then another scan. So we will pray that it is gone next time. Thank you again for all you do for us, it is appreciated more than you know.
