I just want to let you know that you have been in my thoughts. I was away in Michigan and when I returned I had to set up my new classroom. This is a lot of work because I had to move to a different classroom and I have accumulated a lot of books and materials over the years.

My last MRI in June showed improvement from radiation necrosis. I have had surgery for this twice in addition to remove the tumor. I was originally diagnosed with a 3cm tumor to the left prefrontal cortex in May 2004.

I currently only have visible mets with scans in the bones and I am waiting for a trial to open up, hopefully soon, because I am currently off all treatment, except for Zometa.

That's my current situation. School will be starting soon and it is scary not knowing what my treatment will be. If I go back on regular treatment, then I will be disqualified for the trial. I am anxious and therefore have not written much, although I read all the posts, and my thoughts are with everyone. Your post about insurance issues broke my heart.

Best regards,
Barbara H.
