Seven A/C's down and 5 to go, this man is handling it well but what choice does he have?? Fight or flight and Mighty Oak has chosen to fight. He is scheduled for another Brian MRI very soon. Petscan had to be rescheduled due to a momentary loss of coverage. He will be going for the petscan on the 22nd. We now have coverage again. Uggh!!

Tumor markers (TM Sensitive) are on the decline and this is wonderful, almost a dream come true. We are demanding our miracle and are asking for some more time together. Not asking for alot....right??

Thanks for asking and praying for us, we totally appreciate it. We are scared though because we did come close before but no cigar.

We will keep you updated. Stay tuned for our other half of our miracle.....it is a-coming>>Believe51
