Another hurdle in my path

So, had a PET/CT scan last week to "restage" my colon cancer after January's surgery and six months of chemo. Showed up at my oncologists office this Tuesday expecting the all clear ... see you again in three months. Surprise! Latest scan shows a spot on my liver. Scheduled for a new CT scan tomorrow — this one with radioactive gunk running through my veins to give a clearer image of my latest hurdle. Dr. Miranda says it could be a collection of blood vessels — no big deal. Or it could be a spread of my cancer — big deal.

I've tried to keep myself optimistic, at least on the outside. On the inside, I'm screaming "ENOUGH ALREADY!"

Stay tuned.
