He ATE!!!

Ryan ended up back in the emergency room last night. He was very dehydrated and his pain was out of control. He got fluids and they changed his medications around, and he is like a new man today. He ate an entire 6" sub sandwich, and devoured the entire thing.

He had his chest CT and bone scan this morning. We will have the results at his oncology appt on Tuesday.

Hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving!! Thank you to everyone who has been so supportive and caring to our family. We love and appreciate you all!

Update

Ryan got 1/2 of his staples out today. They also repeated his labs and his blood count has slightly went up. He is feeling much better today.
We also have an appt with the oncologist next Tuesday the 1st of December. The correct spelling of the cancer is adrenal cortical carcinoma.

Update

We now have the official name of the type of cancer Ryan has - Adrenal Cortico Carcinoma.
He has a bone scan and CT scheduled for Friday.

We get to take him tomorrow morning to get his staples (all 40 of them) out.

Pathology Results

The pathology results just came in. The tumor was adrenal cancer. They did not see any signs of it spreading to the lymph nodes. They are meeting on Monday morning with the tumor board, to review the treatment plan and next steps. We will meet with the Oncologist next week. After our appt with his Dr tomorrow we will have the exact date for his appt.

He's Home

We just got home. Dr let us come home this afternoon, so Ryan can get some better rest. The ride was a bit painful, but he is resting now in bed watching TV. We have an appt in the morning to get all of the pathology results, and we take him Wednesday to get his staples out. Thank you everyone who has visited and called, we have very much enjoyed the company. We have such wonderful friends and families, and we will be forever grateful to all of you. I will post in the morning and let you all know the results.
