round like a circle in a spiral like a wheel with in a wheel..

You would think somehow these posts would get easier....the trip to Univ. Of Penn with Brian brought us no great sigh of relief. His oncologist is very concerned. She put him on two weeks of antibiotics and a course of antifungals just to make sure the enlarged lymph nodes are not from any underlying infection. His spleen is still enlarged.  Just covering bases and going through the diagnostic process.( he has an infected toenail) He will have a PET scan the week between xmas/new years..to be scheduled in the next few days...and a revisit to Uof P on 1/9. At that Time there will be a biopsy scheduled, and we will know for sure what we are dealing with. And not to be pessimistic but realistically it looks like the cancer is back and out of remission. Things are likely to move quickly once the biopsy is done, so I have about 5 weeks to get things fixed, and put in place and get things sold so we can go through this a third time. I am not quite honestly sure how we can and will face the expenses, haha to say little of the stress.. but you'll be seeing a whole lotta ebay links posted no doubt....it's daunting to think about this a third time....just the gas/parking alone much less all the other expenses...and it's hard to handle it all myself...( Scott is still our only income) but the key is to stay proactive and not let things slide (ugh and the paperwork nightmare).
I am going to try and find an inexpensive place to take Brian away for a few days to get ready for the ordeal ahead...if we can....so suggestions are welcome

Did I mention the paperwork nightmare??

Brian's response to today was..."it's okay"..

He is by and far the most amazing person on this whole planet.
