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.

Friday Update 3-25-11

Things are still going well. She seems to be doing better all the time. I noticed last night while she was working on the computer that she looks healthier than she has in a long time.

I hope that things are going well at work, but it's hard for me to gauge that since I'm not there. We are looking forward to spring break.

Friday Update 3-18-11

Katrina's appointment went really good Wednesday. The scan was still clean and she actually put on weight for the first time in 2 years. She is up to a whopping 98 lbs.

The Neurosurgeon doesn't feel like he needs to see us anymore so we'll just be following her progress at Huntsman every three months or so.

Nothing new to report. We have a doctor appointment next week.

D&C 121

7 My Son, peace be unto they soul; thine adversity and thine afflictions shall be but a small moment;

8 And then, if thou endure it well, god shall exalt thee on high; thou shalt triumph over all thy foes.

9 Thy friends do stand by thee, and they shall hail thee again with warm hearts and friendly hands.

10 Thou are not yet as Job: they friends do not contend against thee, neither charge thee with transgression, as they did Job.

update 3-4-11

Katrina was observed by her mentor teacher this week. She gave her some suggestions and I hope that they help. I just keep hoping and praying that she'll succeed at work. She loves teaching so much.

She is doing really good as far as things outside of work are concerend. I can tell when she gets tired though. Her gait becomes a little less stable and he speech slurs a bit.
