It's been a couple of weeks now and Joel is starting to feel better every day. He is pretty excited to get one good month of feeling somewhat normal before surgery. He has been getting around pretty good and he had his CAT scan last week. We just got the results and it looks like there was shrinkage on the lymph nodes which was good news. The CAT scan can't really detect shrinkage on the tumor accurately so we have an appt at the end of the week to meet with the surgeon where she will observe the tumor and give us an update on shrinkage and which surgery she will do and whether she will be able to save Joel from having a permanent colostomy bag for the rest of his life.
