Yesterday my mom and my family got some bad news... a brain MR identified the cause of her recent severe headaches and general weakness - two brain lesions which are suspicious for breast cancer metastases (after 12 years cancer-free). She's getting good care and pain management, most of the family is local and the rest is making their way home now. We did get some good news to go with the bad; a CT today came back clear for mets elsewhere, so the talk now is whether the brain lesions are small enough to respond to Gamma Knife treatment. We'll learn more tomorrow.

So glad to hear how your Mom is doing. Sounds as tho the medical team has a good plan. It is also good that you are someone 'on the inside' as they will keep you well informed. Please give some {{{{{hugs}}}}} to your Mom for me, and let her know that she is on our minds and in our prayers.
