Update....

So,we are still in a "holding" pattern. We are still waiting for the slooooow-growing tumor to slooooowly shrink-"maybe". In the meantime, symptoms persist from radiation syndrome. Patrick is able to work a few hours at the coffee cart- mostly supervision, and is keeping up with his one seminary class as well as his duties at the Chapel for his internship. He is gaining weight-yeah for Thanksgiving!! He is living in a house in Cuyahoga Falls with 4 other post-college age "kids". It's nice because now he is closer to work. When he needs to rest, he drives less than 10 minutes to the house and can take a quick nap. He's enjoying his independence also.
Patrick will have another MRI in 2 weeks, then see Dr. Hudgins again. In the meantime,I made an appt. for him with a Dr. Schlenk at the Cleveland Clinic- for a second opinion. The appointment is in January- after he goes on the Campus Focus trip to Florida.
I will post again after our appt. at the Cleveland Clinic.
Thank-you to everyone for your continued prayers....
