There was a pretty good scare a month ago, Dad started getting real lethargic and could barely get out of bed.
Got him to the Doc and she upped his steroid to a really high dose to get some swelling under control and within two days he was getting up and able to move again.

They have since started to taper the dosage down and have finally got him squared away on a low maintenance dose of steroids to keep swelling down.

If this keeps up,you'll be calling him "Mr. Shopboss".
He'll be saying things like "hand me that Hemi,will you.Not THAT one ... the long block !!!".

Considering that I have seen him crush a walnut in one hand before he had steroids you may be right!

Time for another update.
We got the results back from the most recent MRI.
Everything is looking good.
No new growth, swelling is under control and virtually no cancer to be seen.
He is still weak and very tired at times but still improving.

GOOD DAY IN THE DONKEY BARN TODAY

No new growth, no need to change up any of his medications, and still doing the physical therapy.

The doctor was happy with everything, and when she is happy we are happy.

FANTASTIC!!!!!!!!!!!

Hey guys just thought I would update everyone.
Everyting is still going well.
There have been no new signs of tumor regrowth.
His energy level has not really changed much, it really depends on his meds and how they affect him so it is just day to day.
As usual some days are petter than others.
Him and mom did get a short vacation to Gatlinburg over the weekend, my aunt and uncle took them and everyone had a good time.
He is also now getting phyiscal therapy at home and that seems to be helping as well.

Sorry it has been a while between updates but it has been really hectic.
