Update

Yesterday, I had my medi-port placed, to make it easier to deliver the chemo. which will start tomorrow. Thank God, it went well.
Today was an appointment with the neuro- oncologist to continue discussing options for the brain metastatises. The doctor is concerned that even though I am asymptomatic as to neurological function, that there may be some cancer in the  menengial fluid. Therefore, I will have a third lumbar puncture (spinal tap) on Monday and then hopefully a decision to see if I can wait until after a few rounds of chemo before whole brain radiation, or if I need the radiation immediately.
Thanks again everyone for your prayers, hopes and encouragement.
