No Gamma Knife for you!....(for now anyway)

Sorry for the Seinfeld "Soup Nazi" line. (the title)....I had to do it! So we met with the Doctors from the Gamma Knife Dept. at the UW. They felt that Sheri's tumors have shrunk back so far, and they were so small that they believe we should hold off on the Gamma Knife treatment. In short because the tumors are so small they think what we are seeing on the MRI's might be residual (dead) tissue, so why treat dead tumors? The only way to tell if they are dead or not is time, which means we wait and do scans every 2-3 months. They want to hold this bullet back until they really need it. We liked the wisdom in all this. It's a bit weird though to prepare yourself for a procedure, then not have it happen. That has happened twice with a mastectomy too. We trust the Doctors, so on we move through this adventure God has us on. We continue to trust Him, and that His hand is on these Doctors. For now Sheri is back on her oral chemo for another three days, then she has a three week break. Thanks for caring.
