Mommy, Daddy and Grandpa took Tristan to the hospital today to get the results of the MRI.
Here is the short version. The tumor hasn't grown at all, and in fact because Tristan is growing and the tumor isn't "he is clinically 5% better". The chemotherapy protocol is working. The next round of chemotherapy begins possibly today, assuming his counts are high enough however, we only have to do something like 3 weeks of carboplatin, no vencristine (which is the one that gives him pain) and 2 weeks of pills before our next MRI which is in 10 weeks. The tumor isn't pushing on anything in his brain so with prayers and luck his eye may start to come back in.....We have a long way to go, but we are on the right path. Thank you all so much for your thoughts and prayers. We as a family appreciate so very much....there just isn't a way to say thank you enough. Keep those healing thoughts and prayers coming PLEASE!
Tristan is the "king of the world' well at least our world :-). More to come. Love you all, so much!
