      Hi Everyone and thank you for your advice.  I got a call from Dr. Lawrence's nurse the other day and I feel better already.  She said there is little disease, nothing anywhere else and my other spots that were dealt with previously were so small.  She also said that the doc will lay out several options including chemo, interleukin (?spelling), and targeted liver therapy.  I feel like there's hope and I haven't even met with the doc yet!

      I will post again after my appt tomorrow and thank you again, thank you especially for the link to the blog.  It helped a lot!
