Cornell was able, with some difficulty, to make it to his CT scan, but it hadn't been read and interpreted by the time we met with the oncologist, who had to get up to speed on Cornell's case (His Dr. is on vacation). He said though, based on the CT scan from Utah last week, and the condition Cornell is in, that he would not do a port with aggressive treatment, but do a milder immunotherapy, meaning they would eliminate one of the drugs originally planned and administer the other through a vein. Treatments would be spaced every 4 weeks. But the doc. thought we would do one treatment and see if it's having any impact, and decide after that. He also said it was quite reasonable to not do the treatment and not have to deal with the side effects and go on hospice instead. Cornell chose the treatment. That plan will go through insurance then get scheduled, maybe later this week.
