Great news for DaddyAdidas


Nov 5, 2020, 3:11 PM

As most of you know, my dad has fought brain tumors since the mid-90's. Most recently he had open-head surgery in December 2018, February of 2020, and Gamma Knife radiation surgery in August 2020.

He just got the results back from his MRI. Tumors still there, but they are STABLE and there is NO GROWTH.

That's yuge. I think he was actually starting to cry on the phone when he was telling me. I don't know that I've ever seen him cry... maybe once.

Surely this is due to the repeated positive vibes and T's and P's from this group, so thanks!

It's that we have to pray just to make it today.

Yes and yes.

Early on the GammaKnife was sorta experimental and it was thought of as a 1 and done type thing, meaning that they had 1 shot to get the tumor, and follow up procedures would kill the good brain tissue with radiation.

Well he's had that procedure probably 15 times, and is still sharper than I am. So it's gotten much more refined and concentrated on the actual tumor.

His old surgeon retired and the new guys seem pretty dang good. He thinks the doctors are 'amazing", but he also thinks that Lizard Thicket has "amazing" food. He's easily impressed... They do seem to be very sharp, though.

The thing about these tumors is that they can sit dormant for a length of time, and then all of a sudden grow like the most malignant aggressive tumor in existence. You have to take the good news when you can get it, though and just be grateful to buy more time. If you ask him, he's been on borrowed time since '95. He has MRIs every three months, so we'll keep an eye on it.
