Just about the time you think we have it headed in the right direction, the other stinking wheel falls off.
Cyndi had a routine follow-up brain MRI last week and the Rad. Onc. today. She has about seven new lesions, one or two could be restarts from past June. Since all the lesions at this time are tiny, less than 5-6 mm, and probably not very aggressive, we will wait until February 24 to have the next scan. For that MRI, they intend to do the scan as if setting up a SRS, a little more detail and if necessary, that may eliminate yet another scan. We were told by a Neurosurgeon in Dallas last May that a “little growth” in the tumor is not all bad as the radiation machines whether Cyber, Gamma, or what ever, can only be set to a limited small size. This means if the lesion is that size or larger, then the lesion gets the whole radiation and the surrounding will receive less damage. I hope that is understandable, sometime I am not so good at explaining things, either too much or too little detail.
So far, we are not overly concerned, we know the risk, and we know there are good outcomes. We know God, so good or bad; we know God is good, and faithful to those who trust. *And Besides*... We have a vacation planned for Hawaii beginning this Friday, and for the next week she is not going to have time to worry about cancer!
God Bless You All,
