quick update

About 3 months ago, Marni's right side started to become weak. The Docs think it might have been a stroke or possible side effects from the radiation she had undergone and that still may be post caner fall out. They are not to sure what the actual cause is.

At this point, she is going through physical (leg,) occupational (arm & hand) and some speech therapy.

The process is slow and while she enjoys going to her therapy twice a week, her leg and hand/arm do not seem to be responding at the rate she would like.

We go back to the Docs in 4 more weeks to decide if she can go off the Temodar (oral Chemotherapy) as she has been on it for more than 6 months. Low dosage, but still quite some time and not completely sure of its overall potential to damage.
