Doh!
From the CT horses mouth:
Findings: New nodular opacity measures 5mmx5mm. Lungs otherwise normal.
Impression: Interval development of a right middle lobe 5mm nodule. Given the history of malignancy, this is concerning for metastatic disease. Recommend 3 month follow-up.
My Impression: Crap.
Our plan: Meeting with a thoracic oncologist Monday to discuss options. Screw waiting three months.
What might happen: Biopsy (less likely because small size) or surgically remove it and do pathology (very likely), if malignant consider chemo.
Surgery options: Scope out the nodule or cut into chest, spread ribs and cut the sucker out.
What then: Keep scanning chest. Hope this nightmare is over.
That really is it in a nutshell. We've yelled, cried, and bought a ton of wine. Still off to the beach. I'll write my findings after Monday.
This sucks...it really, really sucks. We'll get through it like we always do.
Chin is up.

Now that that is out of the way ... You still got this, baby. You both do. One more set back in a series of setbacks ... but so far, NONE are too much for you guys to overcome. Keep jumping the hurdles, CP. And if you tire, you have all of us. You'll get there.
Cheeg UP!
this stinks! but never, never forget that faith moves mountains and the mountain in your life right now is what you are going thru. Keep your faith and know that there are many, many people that love you, Ashley, and the whole family and that daily we go to prayer in your behalf.

Wow. I am so sorry y'all are having to go through this. A great attitude, faith and hope will get you through this too. I am sure of it.
If the doctor suggests a vacation with lots of drinking and humidity as part of the healing process, we have a room with your name on it in New Orleans.

Hang in there Clyde and Ashley and as always, please let me know what I can do for you here in Raleigh(besides continuous prayers).
Hesta, Kirk and Andrew
Clyde,
I know this is disappointing, and I wish a had a terrible joke or a stupid human trick to lift your spirits even for a few seconds. Let me work on that and get back to you. In the meantime, I hope you can use the beach time to find a little peace and to charge yourself up mentally to go back to the mat with this bastard on Monday. You will eventually crush this SOB and get it out of your life and your body for good.
Much love and support from the Bear house.
Love,
Win and Kristin
Clyde and Ashley - Hesta mentioned your blog and I am just overwhelmed after reading - the thought of all you have been through. You will have friends praying for you here in Greenville, NC. Love and hugs - Liz, Brad and Meade Evans
You and Ash continue to inspire us with your attitudes. Enjoy the beach. We're praying for you and thinking of you.
Love,

I don't know what to say. I don't know why this disease is trying to get you. We keep praying that you and your doctors will figure it out and that you and Ashley can get on with your lives. You guys have been though too much. I really hope you can find some comfort at the beach, even if it involves a lot of alcohol. We are forever thinking of you and your family... and waiting for the day this is all over!
Lots of love, Shannon and Will
All of our love and prayers are being sent your way! Chin up, wine back, swim naked.

You people drink too much! Seriously, you might consider getting some help. Please let me know if there is anything I can do to help you with your problem.
Thank you so much for all the support and encouragement. Incredible responses.
Peeling off warning labels and typing with one hand is too difficult. I'll check back in Monday.
Clyde, you and Ashley are truly amazing people! Your strength and your attitudes inspire us! We know you will beat this thing!
Love from Joe, Melissa, and Elle!

elizabeth and chris
I'm with you big man. Thinking about you often. Can't wait to hear about the next brainstorming session coming from the beach. Should be priceless. Try and keep Clark in line, please.
I know you got this thang handled. Keep it up. We got ya back.

The "Rumble in the Junle"
Ali vs. Foreman
Foreman pummels ali with punches that should destroy him for seven rounds. Ali is against the ropes taking this brutal beating, but isn't going down. Instead he laughs in the face of the threatening giant. In throwing these hard knock punches the giant Foreman begins to tire. Ali comes off the ropes in round 8 and proceeds to level the beast. He does this all with style and grace. He becomes an inspriation to the world. The Rope-a-Dope is born.

CP Harris = Ali
Triton = Foreman
It's round 7
