Shrinky and the Brain

The new leader of Karen's medical team.

Karen had another follow-up MRI yesterday and the results were about as good as we could have hoped for. The tumors in her brain have shrunk even more, to the point that one of the three is basically impossible to find without shrinking down Donald Pleasance and Racquel Welch and injecting them into Karen via that handy new port.

Between this and the PET Scan it seems as if  the reprieve bugle has been unequivocally sounded. Karen is doing pretty well and should continue to do so for awhile. The recovery from the maintenance chemo is going smoothly and while there were some bumps during the first week she is doing much better at this point in week two than she did during regular chemo.

So it looks like we're ready-ish for the summer and whatever that brings.
