Tom and Sara Moorman <tsmoorman@...> wrote: Hi all. Just wanted to let you know we are heading back to Cleveland in the wee hours of the morning tonight/tomorrow morning. We are leaving at 3am to be at Cleveland for an EEG at 8 and to meet with the Neurologist to find out about the siezures. Then Wednesday we head back in the morning for bloodwork then a noon MRI, and then appointments with the neurosurgeon, Endocrinologist and the Radiation Oncologist. By the time we are done we should know if I am having siezures and have to stay on the siezure meds, hopefully at least a time frame on when I will be allowed to drive again as well as how sucessful the surgery was and what the next step will be. As of now we think the three possible next steps are 1) transphenodial surgery again if the tumor as fallen into that cavity and is accessible 2) gamma knife radiation if Dr Weil was able to get it off the optic nerve (he didn't really give us much hope of that as he said the tumor had fingers) or 3) IMRT or fractionated radiation. So for now we wait. As for me I am doing pretty good. I am only taking the percocit on really bad/hectic days which are few and far between so yeah!!!! I am staying at home with the kids by myself and I can at least keep up with the basics by myself. I still need to nap daily and my legs hurt a bunch but that is either a side affect from the siezure meds or a drop in the cortisol levels from removing the tumor. We should know more after Wednesday. So please keep us in your thouhts and prayers for safe travels and good appoinments. Thanks!!!! I will send in an update on Thursday when we get back!!
