Hey all!
Good news on the tumor front. They are still responding to treatment so more chemo! Whoo hoo…:-\. We are really happy with the news. Really. Happy. And I should clarify, that these are lung tumors that my oncologist is measuring and we are able to see tumor shrinkage compared to previous scans and we also see tumor necrosis, which is where the tumor dies from the inside out. It’s pretty cool, actually.
I started another 3 day round today and will get another in 3 weeks then more scans around the end of April. At that point, pretty much the same deal as before. More tumor shrinkage, more chemo; as much as I can tolerate.
Sorry for the short one tonight, but I’m tired after the first day and this week will be more tiring. Anyway, scans are read and I’m off to bed! Have a good night!

That’s great news Hunter! Actually seeing the shrinkage on the scans must be uplifting. We can’t wait to see you guys in April.
Woohoo is right. A true good sign. We’ve been waiting with great hope to hear this news..
Absolutely beautiful Hunter. Prayers are definitely being answered! Praise God! Keep the faith and stay strong!
Wow, that’s great news.
What wonderful news Hunter!! Big hugs.
Glad to hear that the chemo’s working. It probably doesn’t hurt to have so many people praying for you either. Hurry and get well so I don’t have to feel bad about making fun of you.
Amazing news! We are so glad the chemo is working!
Praising God for this wonderful news, Hunter. We pray that this trend continues. Blessings on you and your family.
Sleep well tonight Hunter. This is all truly awesome. And thank you for this wonderful news.
Fantastic news! I’ll keep the prayers coming and you keep trucking! Hugs to the family and to short round 🙂 I hope your dreams were peaceful and sweet.
Hunter……You are absolutely amazing! This is wonderful news and I’m so very, very happy to hear it. I’ve been praying for you for months now–ever since your Mom phoned us the news of your illness–as has my entire congregation at St. Paul’s Episcopal in Walla Walla, WA where Jim (Ret. COL James Royce) and I have lived for the past 27 years. We’re snowbirds at our AZ home right now just south of Tucson and our UCC congregation here is adding you and your beautiful young family to their prayer list as well. I don’t even know myself how many hundreds of people that adds up to—but its a lot!
You and Jen and the boys are inspiring us all with your love for each other and your courage. I hope you all can feel the prayers flowing your way from the Sonoran desert and from Eastern Washington.
With happy memories from your childhood at Ft. Hood…….. diane royce
