Such a rollercoaster ride...

The world of cancer is such a roller coaster. Cancer itself is so unpredictable.
They first thought my dad's tumor had grown. Then they decided that since his symptoms are not as bad as they should be (i.e. he can still go to work, and do the taxes), that some of the mass must be scar tissue. So they did another test called a PET scan. This was suppose to determine where the blood was flowing (tumor=blood flow; scar tissue=no blood flow).

Well they determined that there was some tumor and some scar tissue with the test. So they decided to do another test call a MRA scan, which is supposed to be better imaging....who knows....but now they are sure the tumor has grown much bigger, but not recently.

It is the same size as it was two weeks ago, which is pretty great for my dad. Now remember the first tumor grew from nothing to the size of a fist in 3 weeks. So for some reason the tumor has slowed down. So now we are just waiting to see what is next.

If they operate again, they will only get 70% of the tumor at the very most, which seems pointless. There is also a huge chance that he will lose some of his memory or most of it. So he may come out not knowing who we are or who he is. The last 6 months of my dad's life should not be spent recovering from another brain surgery and trying to bond with his family again. Hopefully he will be able to rest and spend time with his family in his last, days, months or years.
Anyways I just thought I would update everyone. Thank you for all your prayers. The Lord has the best plan for all of us.
