Hello Summer
AHHHH. For whatever reason today feels like the first real day of summer. The sun is shining, the pool was sparkling, and my kids were laughing. It is a glorious day.
Dr. B. called this morning and said that he and Jack's neurosurgeon, Dr. W., both looked at Jack's MRI Scan and with their best guess, both think that the nausea is due to the increased size in the tumor, as a result of the swellling due to the radiation. They will keep Jack's previous MRI on the books for July 12th, and then again in September or October. By then they might have a better idea as to the success of the gamma knife procedure.
So there is no definitive diagnosis at this time, just keep a watchful eye, and follow Jack's progress carefully. I didn't expect anything more than what they said, but I am glad to have not heard that the tumor had grown ginormous in size. Isn't that worth a halleluiah?
Jack's nausea has subsided for the most part, I don't think it will be a regular problem, maybe more of a here and there thing. He can take Zofran to help with the nausea if needed.
All my praise goes up, to the Lord in heaven. It is His strength and His might that lifts me and keeps me strong when my mind and body are weary. When I need rest, Jesus is the restorer of my mind, body and soul. All praise to the King.
