waiting

It took some time before we heard anything. I believe it was in December. We heard from the surgeon in Omaha. He felt that Marie had more of the same type of tumors. If they were tumors, they were small. He wanted to take a position of wait and see. The MRI was done in November and he wanted to let three months pass between MRI's. We would look at it again in February.

We had all decided not to do whole brain radiation, because there was not a high enough chance for reduction in recurrence. But here we were, with new tumors, just months after surgery. We will never know if that decision was wrong. At that time, it felt wrong.
