Update...It's back.

 It has been a few years since my last blog post.  This blog was a vital form of communication during our last battle with Melissa's brain cancer.  It also served as a place to me to dump feelings, thoughts, and information...my therapy, if you will.

The BRAIN CANCER is back.   😢

We found out in early March that there was some regrowth that prompted her doctors to move up her MRI schedule.  Before the next MRI got here, there were issues.  Last Tuesday, I noticed she was confused and not acting normal and promptly contacted her doctors.  A recent MRI showed that the cancer was back and it was aggressive.  It has crossed the mid-line in her brain into her left side and is causing behavioral and memory issues.  She also is exhibiting weakness on her left side.  They have done a biopsy and we are awaiting the results.  They are talking 24 hour care is needed, due to her condition.  How does anyone afford that?  I will keep you posted and will let folks know how they can help.
