Watch and Sweat (wait) #22

After another MRI scan Dr Walker continues to be very happy that there is no sign of progression and thinks that I am doing very well.

On the other hand, I am finding that what brain I have left seems to become more dysfunctional and forgetful with each passing day! Yes I know I am 64 now, but it's very annoying.

Watch and Sweat(wait) #21

Yesterday I had another MRI and review with my surgeon Dr David Walker. Everything still looks good with no sign of any changes. Next month will be nine years since my last surgery so I'm very thankful that it's going so well this time. Hopefully it will stay that way.
