Here's an update (in case anyone is reading this old thread) and a word of encouragement.  Doug saw the oncologist on Monday and his urologist on Friday.  The one tiny tumor in the lung that was too small to be zapped by radiation has NOT grown.  Doug has graduated to only seeing the oncologist once a year.  He saw Dr. Bowles (urologist) on Friday and got a clean report for the bladder!  Dr. Bowles practically came skipping out to the waiting room to tell me the good news.  Dr. Bowles is my favorite doctor in the whole world.  Doug tried to talk Dr. B into once a year for the scope, but he is keeping him on every 6 months.  This was a great 65th birthday present for Doug!

Diana, I will check on the size of the 4 spots in my notes tomorrow. Doug had no problems at all with the radiation. :)
