Well….

Dan got the PET scan done and the results came back on “myChart” that evening and it was NOT good news!!

The cancer has spread to the bones, his whole skeleton/spine and especially pelvic area, plus in the whole pelvic region PLUS the lungs!!

I expected the lungs but from googling things IT was supposed to spread to the bones first after leaving the prostate (and lymph nodes) he hasn’t really had bone or pelvic pain, very minor and only once in a while, so I think it’s because he goes to the gym several times a week and does weight and strength training, so he’s protected his bones/ masked the symptoms? It’s all very odd.

The lungs showed a “innumerable foci of metastatic disease throughout” that surely sounds really bad! I suspected it too because his slight cough is more frequent now, nothing sounding like phlegm or painful but just a slight “ahem almost” kind of cough, but he’s never had that before….

He does pee every hour now and even thru the night.

I’m trying to call the cancer hospital and get him in earlier than the 17th, but we’ll see…. I don’t even know if there’s anything they can do other than prolong death!

We’ll see what they say, but it’s all so surreal, not that we’re in denial but it’s so much to take in, we’re almost numb to it……

This quilt was at the UNC cancer hospital, it made me pause and snap a quick picture

Last weekend Sonja went to a Jane Austen dance with her friend and they had a blast!
