What a week!

Matt had appointments Monday and Friday at the Cancer clinic for blood draws to check his white blood count. On both days, he had a high count which was in the normal range! On Tuesday, Matt had another CT scan which showed that his cancer has not spread and is contained! What great news! On Wednesday, Matt was the driver for his family to the hospital to get their colonoscopies. Everyone's turned out fine and it looked great. There were no polyps or any other abnormalities. Also last night, Matt went to the Buck's game with his dad, Grandma Aud, and little brother Nate. It turned out to be a great game and they all had a lot of fun!
Matt is feeling good and has not felt sick this week. This up and coming Monday he has another chemo treatment. Also on January 12, Matt will be traveling to Washington DC for a consultation with Dr. Sugarbaker. They will be discussing details of his next up and coming surgery.
Hope everyone has a safe and happy new year!

I am so glad to hear the great news! I got my picture today in the mail and already have it hanging on the wall in my office. That is truly one of the nicest gifts ever. Tell the family I said hello! Take care and I will talk to you soon!
