Full body scan and MRI scheduled this week June 2nd-6th

Thomas met with a lady Friday at Thompson's Cancer Center at Ft Sanders in Knoxville, to discuss the clinical trial treatment for the immune boosting referred to as Ipilimumab Monotherapy. He will receive one 90 minute infusion of this every 3 weeks, these treatments will be administered by this lady, named Jill, she is a partner of Thomas' main cancer doc, Dr. McCachren at Blount Memorial Cancer Center. This is a new and totally investigational compound. They are scheduling his scan and MRI one day this week, not sure what day yet. After getting results will start the treatments. Please keep the prayers going strong, we are waiting on those words that the radiation has shrunk or totally wiped out the tumors in his brain. I will post again when we find out what the results of his scans show.
Thank you all for your prayers and comments.
