Hi Family...the road is much different these days , but some of that, for me ..is good!

 

After 6 weeks in Florida, it is good to be home believe it or not !

 

Docs Gamma-Knifed a few times,  they did brain surgery twice, the lateset which ony a few hospitals have Docs say, is the...Autolitt, a form of probe with a laser ...to remove a nansty brain tumor.

Does anyone know about this?  CAT scan in a couple weeks but primary lung and lymphs feel good!

 

Love you all

Dave

    Hi Dave, I always like to hear from you. 

    I know nothing of the autolitt, but I hope if you need to have it you will be able to have it done. 

    I wish you well with your upcoming ct scan and I'm glad your lungs and lymphs are well.
