6 month after treatment H/O Clinic Appointment

Today was our 6 month after treatment H/O clinic appointment. All I have to do is walk into the clinic and hear the IV poles beeping to bring back such horrible memories. We met with Dr. Bowman, every time I see this guy I just want to jump up and hug him, he is so great. Dr. Bowman was thrilled with the results of Payton’s scans and said that he is looking so good. Payton can now go off all his meds, and can now meet with his regular pediatrician to get caught up on all of his immunizations. He also said it’s time to go ahead and remove Payton’s port, hooray for that! I will contact Dr. Black or Dr. Miller on Monday to set up a date for port removal. Other than the port removal Payton is done with H/O appointments for 3 months. Payton’s next CT scan/MRI is on December 11th and December 12th is his 9 month after treatment checkup. This will be the longest period of time that we will be away from the clinic/hospital. What a great feeling!
