headed to the father daughter dancehello everyone,
i am SO sorry it has taken me a long time to post. i have been experiencing what i think is writers block. i am the type of person that needs to feel inspired to write. lately, sadly, i have not felt that inspiration.
i thank all of you who have patiently awaited my response and are still checking and posting.
the news is good. every two months i go in for an MRI and then a follow up appointment with dr. nick and duke university. we had a good scare a few months back, but after careful scrutiny and follow up, everything seems to be fine. one of my radiologists found an 8mm growth which could have been a re-growth of the tumor. it turned out to be a "gliosis", which is basically the brains form of a "scab". i had to travel back to orlando for a "super" MRI, which is where the magnet in the machine is twice as strong as a normal scan. the test takes twice as long, they put a clamp around your head, and it is twice as loud. all in all, not a fun experience. four weeks after the super scan i had another regular MR for comparison. all looked good.
the only major problem i am still having is my blood. all of my counts are still down. my doctor tells me this is a result of the massive amount of chemo i endured. the side effects i experience as a result of this are fatigue and a lack of endurance. other than a few memory issues i am doing fine.
our family is doing very well. the kids are enjoying school but still counting the weeks to summer vacation. we have plans to spend time with our extended family doing things we were not able to last summer because of chemotherapy.
i have enjoyed reading your posts.
thank you for your loving support and prayers.
sincerely,
dan

Wow! Danny, you surprised me. I kept hoping for a new blog, but each time I checked it was the same. I see you all the time, but somehow when you share, it is still special. We all love you so much. It is good to hear that you are OK.
Much love,

Hi Dan and Leah! I love reading about how you are and so appreciate that you both take the time to do so. You guys are sorely missed here and I'm so sorry that I didn't get to spend time with you when you were here this past weekend. Leah, it was so amazing to see you in church...
Both of you are awe-inspiring and I will continue to lift you all in prayer. July '09 is right around the corner! Much love,
