CT Scan

Monday August 9



Well today we have set out for another CT this is our first one since Cody has started chemo therapy. We are excited/nervous to see the results to this test. We know it has to show some kind of good sign considering his tumor counts are down so much. Cody wasn't looking forward to drinking the chalk as which he calls it.


When we arrived they brought us back to the smallest room ever. Then asked Cody what he would like his drink mixed with. He of coarse was quit excited that it wasn't needed to be drank by its self. So of course he chose coke. He was so relieved it wasn't the same stuff as the first go around.


They brought 6 glasses back and told him to start drinking them every 10 min. He was not excited that he had to drag it out.

Today had to have been the best day ever. Cody had come home to work on his bobcat when our family Dr./neighbor called and asked if we had been contacted about his CT. Our response was no the Dr. office is out and we figured they would just tell us at his chemo session in the morning. He proceeds to tell us he was looking at them right then and wanted us to know. He has had a 20% decrease in size in the liver spots as well as the main mass in his colon. We were so excited to know that he has responded to the chemo so well. With only having 4 rounds with such response is wonderful.
