We saw the neurologist yesterday for the results of the MRI and we really don't know too much more than we did at this time. She did say the changes in the Brain are from the chemo and she will run a few more tests one of which is a spinal tap to see if there is any type of viral infection going on. She said if those turn out normal then it is just a waiting game. She said in time either months or up to a year his Brain could heal on its own. Of course this is not the quick fix Dan and hoped for but none of this has been a quick fix. I feel for Dan as I know he is so tired of all these tests he has to go through. I have to admit I was a bit frustrated when we left the doctors office yesterday. We have the stem cell docs who come in and say well you have been through a great deal but things are looking much better now and then we have this to deal with.
I have the old sinus /allergy problems in full force right now and I am feeling pretty lousy but I got some over the counter meds and hope this does the trick if not I will find one of those Care Clinics and try and get some other meds. I so need all of my energy so hopefully this resolves itself soon.
I seem to always give the negative information and forget to say how wonderful it is to have Dan and to have made it thus far. It is wonderful just to sit on the couch with him and watch a western and hold hands. He is truly the love of my life and my best friend all wrapped up in one great package!!
Oh and by the way his hair is coming back in and it appears to be curly!!
Take care everyone we love you all very much!!
Ah! My man Dan with a fro. Now that is a Kodak moment to be sure. Hope you get some relief with your sinus problems. Re your pm to Pat: consider it done.
