Today's PET scan shows dramatic improvement, and the images look almost like they did when Lisa was declared in partial remission.  The mets in her bones are also gone except for one small residual spot in her femur.  The doctor said "the disease is under control right now" and that this amount of improvement using a chemo mix that the body had seen previously is quite unusual, especially in just 90 days.  Lisa made a point of telling him that there has been a lot of prayer  behind this chemo!

Lisa's bloodwork also came out with very good numbers, which further indicates that Lisa's body is not having to work as hard battling cancer.   This is a marvelous Christmas present, and instead of a treatment tomorrow, Lisa's next treatment will on Wednesday of next week.
