Well, it's that time again. This Thrusday, after school, we head down for AJ's Neuropsychology testing. This test will be done over a period of 2 days, maybe 3. Depends on how tired AJ may get. For those of you who don't know what this is, it is testing that will measure, in a sense, AJ's IQ and any negative effects on his brain, caused by the Chemo and Radiation. The Chemo and Radiation is known to cause learning disabilities and memory problems. AJ has shown some behaviors that suggests that there could be some damage done. This test will help us understand what exactly is going on. That's the best way I can describe this test. I hope I have described it correctly. In November, we have tentative dates set for his Rehab evaluation, MRI, LP and Audiology. It is looking like two trips to Philadelphia in November. Adam's platoon was granted a 4 day weekend, because of Veterans Day. He has been granted permission to come up for the tests. We're working on the details for this, but please add a Prayer that we can work it out to get Adam up for AJ's tests. I also want to Thank everyone for your ongoing Support and Prayers, during this long journey to where AJ is now. It is really undescribeable, how amazing you all have been. Please continue to Pray for AJ as he continues thru this journey. ~Ann
