Tonight Mom and Dad got home around 7:30....finally. Tears of joy and relief filled the house as we all welcomed them home for the first time in 2 1/2 weeks! It makes us all so happy that we can spend Christmas together at home. As you can imagine Mom wasn't in the cooking mood so we dined over the best Chinese Food dinner we've had in a long time. Tomorrow Dad has a Pet Scan, by orders of the doctors in Tampa. As this case continues to become more and more rare, they insist on continuing to search a few other angles as it would be irresponsible to do anything but. Monday, they will drive back up to Tampa to meet with Dr. Rosemurgy to discuss the results. There is still a "mass" blocking the bile ducts so we need to consider everything. Now that he is discharged we can send his file to Cleveland Clinic, Mayo Clinic, MD Anderson, etc. Thank you all for your kind comments and keep up the prayers as there is still a long road ahead.
