        I am so happy to hear your husband's pet scan was clear. That is wonderful news!! I'll be thinking of him when he starts the Interferon in November.  Make sure you both take care of yourselves – it's a stressful job to be someone's advocate.  Take time for yourself.  Learn all the information you can and if you don't like or understand an answer a Doctor has given you, ask again and again until you understand it.
