I know I'm past due in sending out an update since I stated in my last posting that I would try to update you weekly and it has been over a month. I have received some more good news since my last post. The speech therapist said that I had shown remarkable improvement in my speech and language skills since being released from the hospital in December and that I would not need any further follow up with her team.
I will not see the neuro-oncologist again until the last week of March, but based on my blood test and the problems that I've reported to his office my medicine has been changed several times. This latest combo has been working well, but I'm getting tired of having to bring my medicine with me every time we leave the house. I would also like to be able to drive although this will not be possible in the near future. It looks like I'll have to arm-wrestle my wife's grandpa to see who gets to use the riding lawn mower.When I do see the doctor again we will be talking about chemo and radiation therapies, as well as setting up some second opinions.
Please keep my family in your prayers and thoughts during this time, and I will update the blog no later than the end of this month. For those of you who are local our church is in charge of the community Easter service in Altamonte Springs. The service is located at Cranes Roost in Uptown Altamonte and begins at 10:00 with breakfast starting at 9:00. If you do not have other plans we would love to have you come to this community celebration. If you have any questions about the service you can call the church at 407-339-8961.
