Good morning- Things seem to be moving along for you, even with the one-week waits. I think that it's a good thing that with every new thing that comes up that you have a chance to mull it over and a chance to change something if need be. No matter what kind of radiation Liz will be given it will make her pretty tired so she can rest up. Do you know what kind? Has it all been explained to you? Is it SBRT?

We have no idea until after the biopsy results are in. We think that the plan is to go after two areas of the brain, one in the front left lobe and one at the spinal cord and base of the brain. The Radiologist said 2 weeks of treatment (15 mins or so 5 days a week) and then look at results with a possible second two weeks to follow.
