Wednesday feb. 8 2012. Great news!!!

Just a quick post to tell u all that the prayers have been working! God hears us in out time of need and we have been truly heard and blessed. The words of the neuro oncologist today: "it doesn't get any better than this". He said the cancer has definitely gotten much smaller and all the contrast picked up was a small spot in the right temporal lobe. More details later as e are headed home from la now. :-). So happy

Following almost a week long visit from Colleen and Randy, we are back to what has become "normal" for us here at the Marsey house.  Arlo and Norma are back from their trip to Indio, Janet is wheeling around in the wheelchair again at least until next Thursday when weight bearing will be increased to 50%.  Chris is getting emails (thank you very much!) and is anxious to get back to work.  He still gets tired but is wondering if maybe that's because there is nothing else for him to do.  He feels like his taste is coming back a little and is adding a bit more variety to his daily diet.  His hair has pretty much stopped coming out which has left him some on his head but we totally expect all of that to grow back so no big deal.
Follow up MRI is scheduled for next Tuesday and follow up visit with oncology is on Wednesday.  Praying for a positive result that shows the treatment has killed off the cancer and all he has to do is recover from this point on.
Thank you to all have sent emails to Chris and thank you for keeping us in your prayers.
Love to you all.  CJSRJ
