Whew!

1 1/2 years of cancer treatment: $360,000
Gas to and from 245 doctors appointments: $1,200
Trip to Hippocrates Health Institute: $15,000
A body scan that finally produced good results: PRICELESS!

It has been 5 weeks since Emily finished radiation and she had yet another full body scan last Friday.  For the first time since she was diagnosed, she received some positive test results.  Her scan came back clear!  She gets a three month break and will have another scan in August, just to check a few little spots that were inconclusive on this test.  After that, she need only have two more clear scans before she is considered cancer free!

Congratulations on the great news, Em!  We are so happy for you!
