The Doctor called....

The Doctor himself called Earl saying "I've got good news!" Kinda scared Earl at first that the Doctor actually called. But, everything tested "No cancer", just some kind of infection, apparently related someway to the chemo and/or radiation.

Earl is on his third round of antibiotics. Guess we'll see how it goes. The urologist has turned Earl back over to the Primary Care doctor for follow-up.

Guess we can quit worrying for a while. At least, until the next scan.

Earl is to return to Philadelphia on June 18th for his one year check-up. He reminded me last night that June 4th is anniversary of his surgery. (I already remembered or had not forgotten.... that date will stick with me for a long time!)

Now, if Earl can just make it thru this second year the Philly doctors will be happier and we'll rest easier, too.
