      Or was it just her spine that was clean.  How is her lung met?  If she is really NED from the IL-2 we need to shout out loud and congratulate her.  Her odds of living another 5 years just shot up if that is the case!  Plenty of time to get that hand of hers back to playing dueling banjos without skipping a beat.

      Hang in there Dian!  We are all pulling for you.  You are one tough cookie!

          We are not sure since there has been no Pet/ Ct scan. Many MRI's and nothing is showing unless you consider the beign tumor on her L-1 that will be treated with radiation. She is pretty depressed and slight disoriented frm the Oxy meds right now. Hopefully today they will "map her" and start radiation tommrow after they move her to Saint Lukes and out of the hospital. My only hope is that the doc start thinking positive instead of Negative ( the Onoc's) so that she has a reason to survive….
