Cathy's parents were visiting when her oncologist gave her the news of her endoscopy. Cathy does NOT have stomach cancer. The gastro doctor will be doing a colonoscopy for the lower half, so we're still in a wait-and-see mode but this news gave us something to cheer about.
In other good news, Kyle has found out that his employer will let him switch from his current Humana plan to Humana POS National because of the circumstances. This change would probably start June 1 and would be necessary for any transfer to a New York area hospital such as Sloan-Kettering. The thinking right now is that Cathy will likely start chemo in Florida but would have the flexibility to switch to Sloan after June 1.
Cathy is in good spirits, using the button to push the painkiller, and they got her out of bed while her parents were there for her first walk. She said it felt good to get out of bed.
