We went out for dinner last night with Marjie's sister Sarah and her new husband Aaron. Aaron gave me a Livestrong notebook that he ordered from the Lance Armstrong foundation. It has a bunch of survivorship tools, stories and topics. There are also 10 of yellow Livestrong yellow bracelets in the package. Marjie, David, my folks and some of our friends are already wearing them so I figured I'd mention this on the blog and if anyone out there wants one, shoot me an email and I'd be more than happy to send one or two your way. I don't want to just send them out blindly because you just never know.
Haven't heard anything from the CT scan results, so I figure no news is good news. Next appointment is still scheduled for the 31'st.
My brother Scott will be here next weekend. He's flying in on Friday the 2nd to spend a few days, so we're all really looking forward to that.
That's all for now!

CT Scan
CT scan was this morning. Marjie and I arrived at the Chesapeake Hospital about 30 minutes prior to and were out of there within an hour. Everything went very smooth, we had to wait about 20 minutes and then it only took about 15 minutes to complete the neck and chest CT scan. I brought the old CT scan of my neck which was taken back in September to the hospital and dropped it off with the radiology department to use for comparison, but don't expect to hear anything till my next appointment with the radiation oncologist, Dr. Sinesi, on the 31st.
Actually it's probably good if I don't hear anything till the 31st because "no news is good news". If they find something horrible or if something pops up on the scan that is unexpected, I might hear something sooner, but more than likely, I won't hear anything till my next appointment.
Not much else going on with me as far as the Cancer is concerned. Taste buds are fully operational and I'm pretty much good to go. I'm really looking forward to getting all this treatment behind me. We're really not sure when the radiation treatment is going to start, but figure it should be right around the first or second week of February.
That's about it for now. More to follow.
