Week 28-29

Sometimes you feel like it one step forward and two steps back. This week hit us with a blow that we were not expecting. One of the problems we have been facing for months now is the loss of use of my left leg periodically I will lose all functional use of it, my brain is saying move forward and walk but the message never seems to get to my leg. They have a term for this “leg drop” it has officially been placed on my record that I have left leg drop. My Oncology team has been watching it an alarm bells went off the other day, I am not sure what caused it but they sent me in for an emergency MRI of the brain (the one spot we have not scanned). The concern was the Cancer has spread to the brain. Needless to say, it was a very stressful few days. We have not had many wins since this whole situation started but we consider this a win. The MRI showed that NO, the cancer has not spread to the brain for that we feel like this was a win an did not take us two steps back this time. This is positive in our books. There were a few other things they noticed but are not serious yet to be concerning.
