The Odyssey Begins

On April 6, 2010, Denny had an MRI done at the Siteman Cancer Center in St. Louis. When his doctor viewed the film the next day, it showed a 3cm. tumor in his left nasal passage behind his left eye. (In front of the area where the previous cancer was.) The ENT doctor ran a scope into the area to take a closer look. He decided that it could not be diagnosed based on a visual examination. A biopsy is tentatively scheduled for Monday, April 12th.

He is, once again, in the hands of the same doctors that saved him in 2004. We feel confident that everything that can be done, is being done.

We are going to keep the updates on this blog so that everyone will have up-to-the-minute information. It will help to keep us from repeating the same info over and over. Hopefully, everyone will understand that we appreciate the support but it becomes wearing to have to keep talking about it.

We also request that any phone calls be directed to our home phone. Denny's cell phone is a work phone; paid by the federal government. Deb's cell phone has limited minutes that get used up with doctor related phone calls. Thank you for understanding. We're looking forward to having you as part of the team!
