Stil kicking, everyone. Just tryingto get everything organized with tx and getting the house, baby and myself cared for. My Aunts church is rallying together to get everything arranged for us. Hopefully by next week everything will be calmed down enough to get a routine down.
We are currently exploring radiation, brain cyberknife, chemo and surgery. Chemo last, need to zap everything else first and reinforce the compromised vertabraes. The 6mm brain tumor is growing inward, which is a big concern of course. After further explanation from my rad Onc, they are radiating from C7 down to T10, tomorrow they might start to extend down to my Sacral bones because I am having a lot of pain down there.. Just got my bone scan report yesterday and we are seeing mets in my left and right femur and left tibia, unsure how extensive. Also got my CT and all my MRI's, much progresion everywhere in terms of lungs and liver. Still unable to tell if the lungs are a progressing tumor or inflammation. Since my breathing is so improved I am sure it is just inflammation from the radiation.
Ok, need to get back to sleep, Love you guys. Night night and thank you for all the support
