July 6th was a great day for everyone!!! We went and met with Dr. Harris to hear the results of Dustin’s bone scan. We were all nervous and especially Dustin because we have been waiting for so long to hear any sort of news (good or bad).
Dr. Harris was able to pull up the original bone scan on the computer and pull up the newest scan so we could see the drastic changes of improvement. The original scan showed Dustin’s bone to have a big black spot on his right hip and the scan post Chemo showed the spot was now a light shade of grey. The Chemo is working!! We were all so relieved to have some GOOD news.
Dr. Harris told us that Dustin will continue his monthly blood draws and Dustin will continue to see Dr. Harris every 3 months for his check-ups.
Dr. Harris also told Dustin that in December he will do 1 more bone scan as a preventative measure to make sure the Chemo did its job. In December when the scan shows there is nothing more on the bone, Dr. Harris will call Dustin’s Cancer in remission.
Until December it will be another 4 months of waiting result but we are more than positive that no matter what God has a plan for us and he will protect us and prepare us for anything that comes our way.
We love you all so much and thank you for all your prayers, encouragement, and support during these memorable life moments. These are stories for the grandkids…one day! =)
Thank God for Family and Friends!
