Journal entry by Heather Russo —
Hello to our Family and Friends,
We are once again amazed and thankful to share that Dad had another “clean” MRI scan yesterday. God has given us even more time than we initially expected and we are so thankful.
While we are so grateful for this news, the oncologist emphasized that they do still expect a recurrence, and that recurrence can be more aggressive and resistant to treatment. For this reason they will continue to monitor with MRI scans every eight weeks.
The frequency and intensity of ongoing headaches continues to be about the same, but they are manageable. Dad also continues to get around pretty well, and walking still requires the use of the cane.
We would like to share this verse that has been on our hearts: “That is why we never give up. Though our bodies are dying, our spirits are being renewed every day.” (2 Corinthians 4:16 NLT)
We continue to know that all of our lives are in God’s hands. Our next update will be in May. We are so aware of and thankful for all of your love and prayers and support.
Patients and caregivers love hearing from you; add a comment to show your support.
