What a day!


Amazingly good news...

Let's go back to the beginning of treatment. Remember that Harv's CEA count was 661. Three weeks ago, his number was at 266.2.

TODDDDDDDAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY, his CEA count was....

Wait for it!
Wait for it!

60.6!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


And, look at last week and this week's notes: 
"Significant  change in lab result, rechecked by lab."

In other good news,  we were told that he's at maximum dosage for his weight so that is good in relationship to how he will continue to handle treatments.

We'll come back next Thursday for a CT scan which I'm expecting will show no cancer!! ☺

Harv's a little light-headed, but that's normal for him after infusion.

We got started late today so we'll be later getting home, but today was a very, very good day.

LOVE YOU PEOPLE!!!! ♥♥♥♥♥

(And, P.S. -- I came home to a clean house which was cleaned by someone I don't even know! Thank you, friend of a friend of mine!)
