what is this blog about?

On June 18th 2010, Katrina went in to have an MRI done so the doctors could try to figure out why she was getting dizzy. What they found was a medulloblastoma (Brain Cancer) tumor between her fourth ventricle and cerebellum.

This blog is a journal for Her, and Her Husband, Scott, as they face this together.

platelets

Her platelets were back up to 140,000 which is only 10,000 under what is considered normal. This is great news as it is one less thing to worry about for now. She seems to be doing really well, and we've settled into a nice routine as far as naps, meals, travel, etc. which has reduced the stress a little.

I'm encouraging her to try to start back with Cricut classes. It was something she always enjoyed going to with her mom once a week and where I've noticed her energy level improving I'd like her to get out and start dong "normal" things again. Plus I think that scrap booking would make a great VOR exercise, to help with the double vision. It should also help her work on co-ordination which is another area that she continues to struggle with.

  1. YAY! I am excited about Cricut class. She said today that she was ready to go back again. And she wants to go see Eclipse too. Getting out of the house for something non-medical related will be great.
