good Monday!

I dropped Dave off at Penn at 7:30 this morning, figuring I'd take a long lunch when he was done. However, about 20 minutes after arriving at work, his doctor called, saying he was ready to come home. Considering his stress level last time, I took an early, long lunch to go get him. We received good news: the cancer hasn't advanced as far as they can tell. His chest x-ray looked fine - all of the concerning spots are gone, confirming the pnuemonia diagnosis and no evidence of cancer. His doctor repeatedly said how great his lymph nodes felt and that they were "amazed" with the non-progression of his lymphoma. The best news: she said they think he'll have a few more months! Nothing is certain, of course, but considering the original out-of-remission prognosis, I'm very, very happy with that!
