Hey Jon - no worries - you've got this!!! Hang in there brother!!!
 
Sorry to hear about this, but happy to hear its going well. Keep kicking ass!
 
Some good news from the weekend: my double vision is gone! It's nice to not have to wear an eye patch anymore; now I can help my wife with the driving. I go into the hospital tomorrow for the first round of aggressive chemo. I'll be in there for several days till my white blood cell count goes up. Thanks to all for the continued support and well wishes!
 
Keep up the fight. Glad to hear you are feeling a bit better. I hope the chemo went well.

I'm doing good -- all thinks considered. Light to moderate nausea and general fatigue. The chemo went fine but I had to wait till the med was out of my system before they would release me from the hospital. So I ended up being there a full week.

That's great to hear Jon!! Sounds like you're getting in the groove of the treatments. I like their approach to your situation..."better safe than sorry"....sounds like you're in good hands at this hospital.

Hang in their brother, we're all pulling for you!!! Stay focused on the cure, nourish your body when your stomach allows, stay hydrated, and enjoy the weekend. Spring is coming soon! :)
 
My latest Facebook update--
Heavy duty chemo -- Round 3! I know it's gonna be a full week so I'm ready. After this, the schedule calls for one more "easy" round and one more hospital stay. So I can see the light at the end of the tunnel!

Good luck bro.
 
Latest update posted by my wife today:

Very good results from the PET scan today. The Dr called them Excellent and said he is responding very well to treatment.
He said that Jon could decide if he wants to do the last Methotrexate or not. We had talked about it before and decided that if the Dr even had a inkling to do it, we would go ahead. He answered, "then let's get it scheduled."
He is also referring him the a radiation specialist. There is a small spot that he wants him to look at. It is probably scar tissue, but he wants to make sure. He said that if he does do radiation, it will be short.
