ptbrave2000@yahoo.com if you want to write Leticia some news or support. btw: she is in Germany. I guess I will be using a large font when I write to her and won't be my usual wordy self.... Here is her latest news just this morning:
Dear Patty,you have not heared from me because I just came back from my surgery for about 2 days. I just wanted you to know. The almost 3 weeks I was at the Hospital were not as bad as I imagined. The craniotomy was neither as painful and the results as terrible as I thought, so you don´t have to be afraid.The only thing is making me sicker now are the stereoides I had to take. Can you imagine? Doctors forgot to reduce the amount cortison, so I will have to take it until august, the 18th. My stomach is very bad now, but the last two weeks I was eating normal and I did not loose weight at all, which helped me to recover faster than normal.
Patty, I wish I could give you good news, but I can´t. I was almost a week at the sterotaxie (?do you spell it that way?) and they couln´d do anything. Unfortunatelly, the mets I had were already radiated, so they could not radiate them (4) again, as I told you, but I still hopped it could be possible.
We (my husband and I) sent on Friday all the images we had, because there is a new focal method which could helped me, since doctors in Cologned recomenden only WBR!! They told me, besides everything I have heard before, WBR is not as bad as its name, now it its done in a very different way and not as harmfull as before?? People with WBR is living much longer than expected.
Well Patty, I wish I could writte you as much as I can, but I can not see good and reading is very difficult, so I can only tell you, I AM ALIVE and still searching for another alternatives. I will let you know as soon as I know more.
You can writte in the Chat Room what I told you and give my E-Mail Address too- You are my representant Patty, do whathever you think is right, ok?
Thank you for being there.....
