January 2009

I'm sorry, I never did write about the MRI experience nor the test results. The results were fine - I have a cancer free brain. The experience was fun but that's because a brain scan takes only a short time. The tech said that some scans can take as long as two hours - lying still with loud noises for two hours would definitely be a greater challenge.

Next week I am scheduled to have the quarterly scans - PET and CT and the following week I will see Dr. Patel for the results; three months goes by quickly.

Tonight I updated my profile with a photo taken this past October of me with my three beautiful grandchildren. The chemo hair is gone; my energy has completely returned; and the chemo brain fog has left - it is time to show the "healthy" me.
