Alison had another scan today. Happily, the results were good for a change!
Not only have the tumours stopped growing, they have been shrinking and the largest one is now 58% of the size it was with the last scan.
I'm sure you can imagine it was a very nervous day for both of us but it's great to say it turned out well.
Even getting a flat tyre on the way to pick up Harrison from school didn't put a dent in Alison's day (but then she did have someone who raced out of the office to get him, returned to her car, lent her a car to drive home in with the kids and then kindly changed the tyre on the other car!).
Then again, it didn't really bother me either.
Next week we see the doctor again and will get more news on what this actually means for treatments and in the longer term but for now, we're just happy to take the good news and smile.

Wonderful news Pike family - maybe miracles actually do happen - or was it the apricot kernels. All our love hugs and huge smiles from the Paddo people
PS: thought Ali must have been getting better when she had the strength to wrestle giant cockroaches the other night
Yay, Yay, Yay - well done to all of you. I have my fingers crossed for more good news in the future.
