Just back from 2nd endo doc got the additional samples he needs and in the findings he there is a substantial tumor in the mid esophagus mostly obstructing ( did dilation to 15 mm but noted no change). Tomorrow is PET scan which will reveal if it has breached the esophagus and metastasized to lymph nodes and neighboring organs Fingers and toes crossed.

Hey Relic. Hope you dont mind me calling you relic. I just shorten the names I see to address whomever. But yes, I am on my last chemo treatment and I'll finish radiation, the week after next. What I can tell you is that each case is different, but we have much in common as well. The good news is that a cancer diagnosis is not a death sentence like it was years ago. So many advancements have been made in the fight and cure for cancer. I was surprised to come to know how many people that I know are cancer survivors. Once I started telling people about my cancer it's as though people were hiding the fact from me. So keep your chin up, shoulders back and let's push right on through to victory. Praying for you brother.
