Prayer ping update. See post 340.

Please post your replies to MrConfettiMan

To: All

I'm okay. Too tired to post. Recovery is much more difficult this time around and I've come a long way. They managed to get "it" all this time. Gross total resection. 100% of tumor gone. The Bad News: It's jumped to the next higher grade (III), which means six weeks of combined radiation treatment and a very tolerable oral chemotherapy followed up by a year of the same chemotherapy just to be safe. The Good News: I still plan to be here for a very long time. Joe (MCM)

Hang in there, Joe. Prayers are ongoing...

[trussell]

Hi OP!! Hugs back to you, KV and the boyz!!

I'm glad you find that helpful! I had hoped it would help!

You know, I'd like the "awake" part of the surgery too. If you have to have surgery, I'd rather not have to deal with anesthetics that have their own inherent dangers. But the idea of being awake is appealing because you can watch what's going on. I had to have a procedure done some years back where I was awake for it, and it was real interesting. Now I suppose you have to have a certain stomach for this, but if you are a curious person, it really can be fascinating. So enjoy what you can of this procedure, which will help you and make you better faster, and meanwhile you'll learn a lot to boot.

More prayers on the way!

[Alamo-Girl]

PRAISE GOD!!! Thank you for the update! Prayers continue...

You have my ongoing prayers, as always, Joe. I am so pleased to hear they got 100% this time. Rest and recover well.
