MRI Results....

Well, The MRI results are good, and there is NO recurrance of Cancer.... BUT... There is a spot in Max's Nasal Cavity above his Right Eye (The GOOD Eye). So they think it is a Mucus Blockage and it has got bigger since the last MRI in August 09. SO that is where we stand now. There was and still is a possibility that the Chemotherapy "could" contribute to secondary Cancer, Bone Cancer or some other sort. That was the only Possibility we had, but they seem to think that this is all it is! I was so HAPPY to hear that the MRI Results were clean, but that don't mean we are out of the woods yet, we still have to get past the 4 1/2 year mark. So we have been sent papers on the Survivorship Program at Vanderbilt.

Anyway, we got tickets to the Predators Game tomarrow night. My "person" got us tickets to the game, and she usually gets us GREAT Seats too. GOOOO Predators!! Well, I am tired and I'm goin to bed now... Good Night!!

P.S.
I am trying to take Max off the Bottle at night, which isn't working. But he is off his binkie now!!

Monday and A Doctor Visit.....

OK, so its Monday Morning at 6:19am! Max has a Appointment with his Oncologist Dr. Kuttesch at Vanderbilt Childrens Hospital, at 1:00pm today. Just to get the results of last Thursday's MRI. Which we think that it will be a clean MRI and he will now be able to go every 6 months for MRI's now, but the older he gets that harder it will be. Man.... did we have a hard time getting him a IV in!! Whooaa....... They had to give him Versaid, which is a nasal mist to calm him down, that worked for a bit, but then he was bad. LOL If I could have did it for him I would have! Poor little guy!!
So they finally got the IV in him hand, but by the time we got to the MRI room he had pulled it loose from his hand and they couldn't give him meds through it. So there Max was laying on the MRI table and with out a IV in, so they ended up just IVing him in his foot and then taping it inplace while he was out!! So next time they told us to make sure he is goin to get a MRI to get him to come on Monday... they can Gas him. He has had Gas one time to be put to sleep, that was the time they could NOT find a vein... and they stuck him like 17 times! Thank Goodness for Pedia-Ports!!
Anyway, Max's Papa had a Doc Appointment this moring also, so today to Doc Day!! LOL
So, anyway... I shall post later today on Max's MRI results and Doc Appointments. We have decided on a name for the Puppy.... well on a few names for the puppy.... Belle, J.D., (John Deere) and Gnash (Predators Mascot). So I don't know just yet! I have to go now, that danged puppy is howling....
