After this, there will be a CT and an MRI to assess the progress. Beyond that, things are pretty fluid. Assuming the tumor has shrunk further, they want to do some spot radiation to kill off what ever is left. Maybe surgery after that but maybe not. If they are satisfied with the results on the colon and the spot on my liver, they will move on to radiation of the lump on my neck. Five days a week for seven weeks. Fortunately, it is a short procedure...maybe 15 minutes per. They will require me to shave my beard. If'n you don't recognize me, it's me. 
On the positive side, I feel very good and am up to just under 190lbs. Hopefully, we can keep the weight about there.
Thanks for all those who offer up a prayer or even just think of us now and then. We BOTH appreciate it!
Great News

Cancer is something that is always lurking in the back of our minds. I have had a lot of it on my mothers side. None on Dad's side but heart attacks and strokes. I'm trying my dangdest to to everything they didn't like exercise and eating right and making sure I get all my minerals. But Lord I still love bacon and chocolate.............Bob
