Since Rusty's appointments were on Monday and Tuesday, we vegged out on Sunday and spent the afternoon in Richmond (a suburb of Houston) with Cadge and Bob.
On Monday Rusty had his usual 3 month "restaging" body scans, and since we missed our usual Italian dinner during our last visit, we made up for it Monday at D'Amico's.
Only one seizure this month and Neurologist has decreased seizure medications in hopes of improving walking balance and coordination. Otherwise neurologically stable. No return visit to this clinic for six months. YAY!
Radiation neuro-oncologist reports that brain MRI shows that the brain is stable - no further necrosis and no new lesions. No return visit to this clinic for four months. YAY!
Melanoma doc says scans show no tumor activity and Rusty is "perfect." Rusty will continue the immnunotherapy for about nine more months, once every 28 days. YAY!
So, as usual, to celebrate Rusty's good health and our high spirits, we had a meal - upscale Chinese this time.
We leave Houston tomorrow to spend a couple of R and R days at Blanco State Park, then head over to Wimberley on Friday to prepare for the August Wimberley Market Days on Saturday. Home on Sunday. Thanks once again for your interest, prayers, good vibes and support...we feel surrounded by love.
