It worked.

I had my follow up head MRI on Monday. I received a phone call from Dr. Whipple on Tuesday afternoon. Of course I didn't answer the phone. You all know how I am.... so he left a message.

He said I had "dramatic results". Rapidly shrinking cancer. While he still is consulting with the Doctor that does the gamma knife surgery; he isn't sure there will be any need for it. He also expects the cancer to continue to shrink and probably disappear completely.

whew....

I still have a lot of pain while recovering, but now I know it's working it seems more bearable.

So happy birthday to me! Could there be a better present?
