Scan results

Nate had a PET scan this week and the results came back no evidence of disease- no cancer! And no weird blips in his thyroid or prostate this time- also good news.

Thank you to those who stop us and ask how Nate is doing, who still pray for our family. We are deep in our being grateful for this season of "normalcy." We could have lost this family life together. We are grateful for physical, emotional and spiritual healing. Nate was diagnosed with cancer October 2016.  April 2019 will be two years since his stem cell transplant.  We know numbers aren't magical, but yet we all have certain milestones that loom over us. When we started this cancer journey, the first Dr told us Nate would most likely relapse within 2 years.  We know now that yes, that happens for some. But we also know that everyone's cancer is different, some people go 10 years without a relapse!  So in some sense we have been holding our breath these last 2 years. And still holding our breath to make it past April 2019.  Cancer can mess with you. But overall we are focused on living- being present in the moment, enjoying our family and the gift of today.

I would guess Nate will have another scan around April 2019. Once again, hoping you don't hear anything on this blog until then!
