@ittybitty hello again and welcome. part 4- well lets see. no cancer last tests and the doc has me on a med i cant stay on so start infusions this next Monday. since last sort of got hit by a tree, knocked hip out and a rib i busted in 2021 to get out of place so just babying it. my spirits are on the mend and doing good. Hope you are too. the infusions are to replace the drug i am currently on.so everything's a plus today. sister is at the mayo in phoenix getting treated for V fib and meets with her surgeon Thursday for a game plan to fix her. My little brother will buzz me later today and we can become more like brothers again i hope. when he is quiet it usually means he's up to no good. Will have to wait and see. My caregiver that is here 5 days a week had a miscarriage at a very young age and i feel honored that she would let me in that conversation. she's kind of like family now. next month she takes me to another appointment again. we make a day of it. she is out today for doctor appointment for cramping same place. ill send prayers that way for her again to help her in her struggles. were i well enough financially i would kelp her and her family in their struggles right now. the meds they want to use are for my cognitive and dizzy spells along with balance. will keep you posted. sure hope you are doing good today and it is your turn to speak out. Have a blessed day.

@ittybitty ok, well the two years had me struggling the first 9 months, my tumor was just under glioblastoma next one down. march 29th was two years from first surgery and shortly after that they had to go back in the same spot as the first because of a brain bleed. Mine was right frontal lobe area but was massive and cancerous. had two ground seizures days just before my surgery, after the last one i lost my short term memory and had peripheral vision loss in my left eye to almost half. have had to learn how to overcome and adapt. well i have to go feed some critters so i will get back to you in a little while.
