Here we go again!

So we had aprox. 3 months free of cancer!  We went on a great family vacation with some really good friends and have been working at helping Jason gain weight.

Last week we went to our radiologist for the results of his current scan. Red flag when our nurse Bonnie came in and asked if she could borrow Austin. (We brought him with us to reduce the fights at home).

Turns out there are 2 spots on Jason's right lung that concern them. One on the top and a larger one on the bottom. Now treatment for this will not be as life altering as the oral cancer treatment,  but lung cancer is just scary! I lost my best friend/grandpa to lung cancer when Noah was just a baby!

We visit a specialist on Tuesday who will take a biopsy of the tumors. The results of that will help decide treatment.  If this is the same cancer he had before (hpv positive) we may be able to get it with radiation and chemo. If it is a different cancer, they may suggest surgery.

Here we go again....we have to once again teach cancer that the Smiddy's are NOT to be messed with!  I wish we didn't have to, but we do and we are up for the challenge!

Thanks for always being there....I will update as I know more.
