Relapse, it's a bitch

Haven't updated in awhile.  Things were going really well up until a couple weeks ago.  I had returned to work last Fall and enjoyed a great week in Maui with family and my girlfriend in January.  Had a CT scan that showed a 4 x 4 cm lymph node in my groin region that didn't exist last September.  Nothing visible to a nearly 2 in x 2 in node is not great news, it is on the move again.  The best thing to do now is go back to chemo, bleh.

Good side of this, it is not congregating anywhere else besides this lymph node that is far away from vital organs.  There are also a number of drugs and trials coming up in the near future that we can throw at this.  Bad news is that this is bad news, recurrence at this rate of growth after the many weeks of chemo and extensive surgery I have gone through doesn't bode well.  However I am still in very good health otherwise and young and can power through this chemo crap.

I go in Wednesday February 5th to start up treatment again.  Hopefully the Seahawks parade allows me to get there on time :-)
