Good news! The radiation procedure today went well,
and the doctor thinks with 90% surety that he nuked the tumor. We won't
know for a few months though, because the tissues will swell a bit at
first.
Bad news! The PET scan was today. They found more melanoma in his body. Starting from the top: brain, left supraclavicular lymph node, right humeral head, right deltoid, lungs, pericardium, T4, T7, inferior vena cava, both adrenal glands, an intra-abdominal mass, duodenum, jejunum, ileum, left acetabulum, both ischium and the vastus lateralis. Bryce doesn't mess around. If he's going to do something, he goes BIG. The lungs are still the "point of morbidity", so they're the scariest.
We fly into Denver tomorrow at 6:15 p.m., and we'll be there for a week. Bryce has to meet with the docs all day Wednesday, then start his treatment Thursday. He's so scared and he's feeling fairly sick now. It doesn't take much to make him very tired.
Please keep the prayers coming! We are relying on everybody else for support.
