My brother went in for his MRI on his brain tumors - after waiting for 3 weeks after ending his radiation -- and IT SHRUNK - down to 19 centemeters from 31 centemeters - the Doc says its like a scab waiting to fall off so the body can absorb it - IF YOU GUYS ONLY KNEW HOW HAPPY I AM RIGHT NOW. His 2nd round of chemo is tomorrow. He's been sick and very weak but is in great spirits after hearing this. Thanks to my NLN family for your thoughts and prayers - this tuly is the best forum and I am lucky to have you all!!

My prayers are still with you Rae, God bless your brother. It's great to hear good news for a change.
And it's true, this is like a little family here. Sometimes you just need to talk. And there's always someone here to listen.
