We went to Dad's big appointment on Mon. the 18th. According to the Doctor, my dad's latest catscan reveals that there doesn't seem to be any new tumors and that the original tumors have not grown . The scan shows that there has been extensive scarring on both lungs, due to the radiation. This is to be expected but is the reason for much shortness of breath. The Dr. explained that it is as if my dad has had part of his lungs removed. The scarring also blocks some viewing of the lungs, so we just have to keep a watch on them. We are so thankful that at this point the cancer has not progressed. For now , my dad has a break in treatments & will return in Oct. for follow up.
God continues to uphold us and we are so grateful for the latest news! Thank You for your continued prayers.
