      So we have had our summer bubble, travel, family, lazy……………..4 months off meds, first scan since July.  July PET showed lung tumor and lymph nodes almost no activity – Yay!  BRAF combo – whatever side effects Charles suffered were worth it – it kicked Mel in the butt. The side effects at the end became too much, we chose to live a summer of life, take another trip in November.  And yet now here we are – breathing the "scan day" air which always seems thinner, nerves more rattled………..wish us luck.  Results on Thursday with Onc………….we pray PET has no lights to show!
