FOLLOW UP SCAN DAY
Today was a follow up MIBG Scan day and Matthew took it in stride. And he was so trusting that he slept through most of it!
During the scans Mom and I always sit, stand, and pace back and forth as the various parts of the scans are done. We have seen so many now that we would like to think that we are able to ‘read’ them with some confidence … but experts we are not, so even having watched carefully all the scans and particularly the 3 previous scans that came back great we always eagerly await THE CALL from Dr Foster.
“ZERO!!!!!”
That was the first word out of Dr Foster’s mouth before mom could ask if she could put her on speaker for a Matthew and I to hear.
She couldn’t contain herself because she knows that we are eager to hear the news and it is clear that it means so much to her also. And Matthew, of course, was smiling from ear to ear at the latest great news.
Then, after an appropriate amount of time with mom and dad 😉, he got out his phone and the first person he called was sweet Emma! ❤
CUTENESS
Mom is sooooo cute. With an abundance of gratitude to our gracious God she’ll always have a time of ‘happy tears’ and fervently thank God for how awesome He is!!! 🕇
WHAT’S NEXT?
Matthew will continue on the maintenance plan and may take part in a clinical trial for those with “No Evidence Of Disease” once that is done. With his next scans in June Matthew will officially be at “End Of Treatment”.
LASER FOCUSED
He is staying focused at school and is really enjoying his college experience and thankful that he is getting this blessing!
GOD IS GOOD!
We are so thankful for the grace and mercy of God and can’t thank all of you enough for all your prayers and support.
May the Lord bless you and keep you!!! 🕇
