On my walk a few minutes ago. A cloudless sky in Seattle- who would’ve thought?
Note: health update coming next week. I’ve seen one of three doctors, after my last CT on the 8th. Two more still need to weigh in. Based on what the first oncologist said, I have a sense of where things are going. It’s a mixed blessing/bag. All good.
This journey started in 2018, with the first CT scan. It’s just the nature of ‘c’.

Health Update
I had my last CT scan this Tuesday. Today I got a call from the Radiation Oncology Clinic, apparently the doctor saw something in my scan and he has decided I need 15 SBRT treatments rather than the 5 that was initially scheduled. Big change. I still start on Dec. 19th, but now the treatments go until January 10th, including my birthday on January 5th. Now we’ll have a quiet Christmas, New Year and birthday!🎉
The CT also discovered that I have a fractured T12 vertebrae. That problem will have to be put off till end of January. When it rains it pours, I guess..
I miss being out with my camera 📷.
Will post after my first treatment.

Health Update
Today I met the radiation Oncologist and his staff. They were all wonderful. I’m in really good hands. Next week I go in for CT Mapping of the tumor. Once mapped, the coordinates of the tumor are entered into the SBRT machine and will be ready for treatment. I have one more CT scan with contrast to do so the doctor has the latest image of the tumor. Doctors at two hospitals have been tracking this tumor for the last 9 or so months, so there is a plethora of imaging and data to work with.
