May 13th, 2010

I am done with the chemo. It is such a relief to know that I don't have to go back to Seattle in June. I am having a big party in June, everyone is invited. I am not sure of the weekend yet but it will be towards the end of June.

I will probably have to head south again in July and/or August for discussion and then start up of my maintenance program. Right now the thought is that I will go with the radio-immunology therapy. It is the program where you get radio-active material through an IV. It takes seven days. Dr. Kaplan told me to wait until next month's National Oncology Conference before making a decision. At this conference Dr. Kaplan is hoping updated long term results will be presented from several on-going studies. It will help him help me make a decision.

Right now, I am just happy to be done. I am on a new anti-nausea drug which hopefully will work for me.

I am happy to be home with my family.
