So far, Adrienne's bronch shows nothing unusual, no cancer cells and no infection. I got a little bit more detail (again) on her scans and they think that the known tumor grew a bit and there is one new tumor, and they suspect the rest is/was infection. These bronchoscopy results confirm that there isn't anything aggressive, which is very, very good news. The plan now is to put Adrienne on another two week course of antibiotics and then do a CT scan again. In the meantime, we know that things aren't too aggressive and we have some time to figure out what to do next.
Adrienne has her last exam on Wednesday, and Curt and I will move her out and drive her back. She'll have a little bit of time off before graduation, and then we'll be going to Miami at the end of the month to see the cardiologist (and Bekah finally in person!). It's amazingly wonderful to have some time off and to not be panicked about the next steps.
