Progress Report of good response to treatment on recent ct scan

Good news on the CT chest report (copied here)!

1. Continued decrease in size or resolution of lung nodules, now measuring up
to 7 mm in the right lung base.
So far so good!
My day to day experience of the illness and side effects of treatment are still present and unpredictable in frequency and severity and I am getting more skillful in managing them as time goes on.

    Dear Stan, very happy to hear this. I once again watched your interview on Chronicle and felt your presence in all the visits we had during Eric’s appointments. The truth of your mentoring words played out in real life.

    Hope this good news is accompanied by feeling better, too. Jean

    Stanley,
    I’m so happy to hear this bit of good news.
    Sorry I haven’t responded in a bit but my computer was down and it took a bit of time to get it fixed.
    I meant to hand write but…….
    You know we used to be told that the road to hell was paved with good intentions.

    Did you know, and you probably do, that the younger generation, 18 and younger, can’t read cursive writing.
    I just found this out this past year and my grand kids range from 16 – 29. All these years I’ve written them so many times and not knowing they themselves could not read cursive. Obviously, I now print to all of them.
    I do think of you often and give thanks that I had you as my Doctor all those many years.
    Hope, thanks and hugs, Janice
