Thank you Fharraige, Innerzone and WC. I had a good result with the scan. No changes since the last one, hooray! Each scan opens up the possibility of another round of cancer treatment, and each one I get through is just pure relief. I'm good to go for another year.

I don't know how much of my son's behavior is related to his adhd and how much is his pure hatred of me. When he settles down he claims he doesn't hate but then whenever he gets upset this boiling rage erupts and I end up living with the consequences. That is why I didn't want him to come home after travelling but I got stuck with it because I didn't put my foot down and totally refuse to take him in.

I really appreciate the folks who reached out on this thread. Sometimes Ijust feel so alone. At least the security people were not following me this time in the hospital. I only saw a cop parked at the main entrance but no one inside the hospital.
