The end of the world didn't happen so on we go. Yesterday Mitchell had a Drs. appointment for his antibiotics. Everything went just swimmingly. He had his pick line removed so he can now take normal showers and he is particularly excited...he can go swimming. He will only have monthly appointments for antibiotics for the next 4 or 5 months and scans every three months. The mass continues to shrink and Dr. Norwood reinforced that he is disease free.

We have to be real about all of this and there is a chance it could come back. As Dr. Norwood said, if it comes back it will in the first six months to a year after completion of treatment. If it does, the type of cancer Mitchell "had", will come back with a vengeance. So cross fingers for beautiful scans and normal blood work!!! And in keeping it real...every day he get closer and closer to living a teenage life!!
