The Brain and tumor: News 2

8/25/10 News What is happening? Tumor and Brain

I am feeling a better now. It is funnier that in my hand I know what to say, but I can not only saying it correctly, yet. There were great things that happen.


Georgiann supports me and loves the plants.





This year many people well help me the Rehab (Physical, Occupational and Speech). The Speech-Language Pathologist, Karen, and two people help me in the front office will in the Sentara Obici Hospital.












Since I remember home, we have Turkeys in my yard.

The first cat, she left us about 2 years ago.






We now have two cats and they are about one year old. The first are the kittens when we got them. The next picture is the cats having fun.











CyberKnife Radiation

I have completed the CyberKnife radiation treatments. I had three (3) radiation treatments. Recovery will last for 4-6 weeks.

Before the CyberKnife radiation treatments, my speech was improving. But since then, my speech needs some more work and it is improving. I can also write emails again.

In the next 6 months there will be a MRI to assess the tumor.

Is the tumor still there?
Did radiation kill the tumor?
What is next?

Section 1.2 Early Days of Recovery

I will write parts of the section 1.2 and most of the work was done by Georgiann.
