Chris’s Story

Site created on October 10, 2020

Welcome to Chris’s 2nd CaringBridge website. We are using it to keep family and friends updated in one place as Chris goes to UCSF . We are so excited about this clinical research study, hoping it will help Chris with his central pain syndrome . He developed this terrible pain about 2 1/2 years after his 2015 stroke. We are both scared and hopeful that this deep brain stimulation will decrease his excruciating right side pain. We appreciate your support and words of hope and encouragement. Thank you for visiting.

Journal entry by Joan Lundgreen —

Happy Friday🥰 Chris home from hospital. This is a picture of his neurologist and his research team . Women 2nd from left baked amazing chocolate chip cookies and scones for Chris. They all left us a nice thank you note and will keep their eyes open if they hear of new treatments for chronic pain. The Dr is committed to working with doctors in Oregon to see if a few treatments are available in Oregon👍
Chris resting most of afternoon and doing fine.

This will be my last entry as we head home to Oregon Sunday. All our best to each of you and again thanks for supporting us on this journey for Chris❤️💗❤️
