On the heels of two glorious weeks in the Pacific Northwest, we flew directly from Seattle to MDAnderson Houston for Rusty's regular monthly visit.  He had scans on Monday evening and visit with neurologist, visit with Melanoma team and labs on Tuesday.  The news is very good!

Scans show that there are no longer any tumors visible in Rusty's organs!  It seems that the immunotherapy is being effective in attacking the melanoma.  We were told that it could take over a year for the immunotherapy to ramp up and become effective - and so it has.  There are a couple of small, shrinking visible tumors in soft tissue, but Dr. Amaria (Rusty's primary Melanoma physician) is confident that they are not a problem...She is very pleased with the positive scan reports and plans to keep Rusty on the 28 day immunotherapy infusion schedule for the foreseeable future.

Cannot even start to express our gratitude ...to God, to Rusty's medical providers, and to all of you for your support, prayers and love.

More next month after our October visit.
