PET the kitty and Scan the Body

We have a PET scan scheduled tomorrow and this is my first time getting one with Good Sam Hospital.  All the group at Providence PDX asked was for me to not eat or drink anything 5 hrs prior.  We received a packet with instructions of what to and not to consume up to 72 hrs before.  I'm making chili for tonight that falls within the 24 hr rules.  

I just hope the scan shows no new cancer progression.  As far as the Yervoy treatment is concerned this is about a month and a half too soon, but it's on the schedule Dr Wallen has for me.

Wel'll meet with Dr Wallen next week to discuss the results as well as next steps.

I'm walking fairly well, but still need better left hand coordination.  Working with the therapists at Good Sam has really been helpful.  I have a feeling that I'm close to getting over a wall with my left hand.  Hopefully I make progress internally as well as externally.
