Tumor Update

I met with Dr. Gefter this morning to finish the radiation set-up. He and his staff took good care of me while my head was bolted to the table. :)  Treatment should start tomorrow at 1:00pm. I will be taking Temodar during the entire six weeks of radiation.

Dr. Gefter mentioned that my recent MRI showed no new growth of the tumor itself (Praise the LORD!), but the section of the tumor that enhances with contrast has gotten larger. Enhancement of a tumor usually signifies malignancy. We are praying and believing for the radiation and Temodar to be effective with NO side effects.

And in other news... My Mom is going to be here in less than 48 hours. Woo-hoo!
