We just came from our follow up appointment with Dr. Jordan the fertility specialist. All of Casey’s levels have returned to the normal range since his Chemotherapy. She doesn’t think we’ll need to have any fertility treatments! We are really happy about this news, since it’s a complete turnaround from what we heard in December when they were thinking that IVF was the only (extremely expensive) option for us. We can now try for spontaneous conception. Hopefully, with prayers, a little bit of luck and the right timing Casey and I will be parents one day. Here’s where that hope and optimism come into play!
Also this week, Casey has his first post-chemotherapy CT scan. He had the test this morning and despite the awful barium shakes and upset stomach he made it through the test relatively unharmed. We will get the results on whether he is still cancer free on Thursday when he goes for his checkup with Dr. Atluri.
*******RESULTS UPDATE*******
The results are in!! We got the results from Casey’s latest CT scan and he is still cancer free! Woohoo! He has to do another one in 4 months so we’ll continue to keep you updated!
Thanks for keeping us in your prayers! They are obviously working!

No polite way to say it, but “spontaneous conception” sounds like something pretty messy and that you hope the drapes are closed (and scotch-guarded) when it happens.
Great news though!
Haha you’re a nut, Jack! Though the saying kinda makes me think of immaculate reception.
immaculate reception???????? LMAO!!!!
LOL! I tried to think of a polite way to report the news, but nothing really sounded right so I used the same words the Dr. used, which still made me giggle!
Now its just time to relax and enjoy..don’t stress and it will happen in good time
