Continuing good news

On two earlier occasions, I have written of a fellow non-Hodgkin's lymphoma patient, now a respected friend, living in the heartland of America who has had NHL resistant to two earlier cycles of chemotherapy. Resistant in the sense that the tumorous lymph nodes never disappeared after treatment cycle.

A few months ago he received Zevalin radioimmunotherapy---a few weeks later the enlarged lymphatous nodes were no longer felt.

And the good news continues---I just received an email telling me that a follow-up PET scan is completely clean. No evidence of lymphoma noted on this sensitive imaging study.

I love to hear such wonderful news.
