HI Lisa,

Great news on the PET scans. You crack me up, because you sound like my mom, who also had WBR almost 2 years ago. She always switches words like you do for holidays, so what, she always says, chemo brain strikes again. So far she hasn't seen anything from grey to white matter on her MRI reports, but I guess it all depends on who is reading and writing the reports.
You both are such strong women and I am completely amazed at the struggles you overcome everyday. Feel proud of your strength and don't worry about the word thing. I always tease my mom and tell her she is no spring chicken, just to make her feel like it is old age and not the disease, to make her feel just a bit more normal. She is turning 60 on the 30th of this month. She was diagnosed 6 1/2 years ago and they gave her 4 months to live, 1year if chemo worked, and here she is today, still putting me in my place!!! Enjoy life, you've worked so hard for it!!!!!
Hugs, Kristin
