Brain Drain

Karen had another MRI this afternoon and right afterwards we met with the doctor to find out the results. I was in a pretty good mood since I had just beaten three levels with perfect scores in Pixel Junk Monsters while I waited for Karen to finish. What could possibly put a damper on my day?

Not her MRI results, that's for sure. The three metastases had shriveled up dramatically thanks to the radiation. One of them was almost gone it had been so thoroughly zapped. Even better, there was no evidence of any "seeding" of new mets. Really, the only drawback to the radiation was that Karen somehow failed to develop any superpowers. Or perhaps they just haven't manifested yet....

That's one big test down, one big test to go. Karen will have another PET scan on Thursday the 20th and we'll get the results of that right before her chemo treatment on Monday the 24th. We are crossing fingers.

This, apparently, is what Karen's soul looks like.
In the meantime, Dash is on break from school which means he has a lot more free time to play GTA V online with his mother kibitzing from the couch. Which means I can expect to hear a lot more of the following:

"What now, Mom?"

"Kill that guy and take his money."

"Say no more."
