strange thing to post

i received a call from the nuerologist tonight.
The nurse had alread scheduled a follow up appointment in July,
so i was not expecting this...
or maybe i was.
There is a bit of something growing back in the 4th ventricle of the brain,
there were some blood work issues - like things indicating that i was exsecising heavily before the blood test -
i was not..
It will require a follow-up MRI in 6 months.
I am more curious than anything,
What does this mean?

HI JOEY - I don't do well at all with the waiting - my mind races with all the "what if's"! You are much calmer than I would be. I am amazed at your strength.
Love to you
Gail
peace...

You have to wait 6 months? Are you OK with that?

You have been through so much.Enough already! I can only offer my prayers.

the thing is slow growing, not fast - 6 months is good and i may get something i am looking ofr - some of the blood results make sence as i think about it - they were after work...

what ifs are a scientist's treasure - they are not bad things if you look at things in the correct light.

Will keep you in my prayers, Joey. I prayed for a little girl with a brain tumor not long ago. They spotted something on her follow-up MRI too. We all stormed heaven and when they did a re-check the suspected growth was gone ... nowhere to be seen. Truly an answer to prayers. Hopefully, that will be the case for you too. God Bless!

Not a strange thing to post but certainly a strange thing to happen to you. Hope it turns out to be nothing serious.

Hopefully it's all part of the "follow up care" and am glad some people are keeping you in prayer!

i hope it does not mean anything wrong Joey, that's why they needed 6 months wait, not urgent. will keep you in prayers, that hopefully, everything is and will be alright.

Stay positive and try not to worry too much. Be focus and don't speculate and I'm sure it is going to be ok.

Time for a healing. For this and lunch (if you like, my treat : ) let's get together after the fourth of July brouhaha. Contact me. You are ever in my prayers, Joey. You always have been...and you ever will be! Anything I can do for you, I will. Just promise me that you will NOT BE AFRAID. OK? With Love In Christ-Barb (BarbaraKSexton@aol.com)
