For the first time in about a year, Adam’s MRI results came back without any changes compared to the last MRI two months ago! He is now able to get MRIs every 3 months instead of two.

He also received glasses. Our new concern at the moment is his addition to pop/soda 🙄🫠

Two months ago, Adam’s MRI came back with more suspected damage to the linguistic side of his brain from radiation. The most recent MRI from last week, he didn’t have any more damage, but he did have extra cerebrospinal fluid that’s putting pressure on his optic nerve. We are doing what’s called a MR venogram (MRV) to examine his blood vessels in that area.

On a positive note, Adam received an electric wheelchair from our local disabled veteran’s group!

Adam’s MRI from Wednesday, June 5th showed slight movement, about 1mm, in the area that had more significant change last MRI. He will keep getting MRI’s every two months to monitor these changes for at least a year. They still predict that the changes are damages from radiation. It’s in the part of his brain that controls word finding and connection. He’ll keep doing speech therapy to strengthen these areas around his brain that aren’t affected by the damage— it’s a continuous fight for growth vs damage.

Also, we’ve been working on getting a ramp for a couple months now, and we finally have it all set up.

Adam enjoys getting out and going to eat. The picture is him eating at one of his favorite restaurants, Barry Dyngles.

Update: The Cleveland Clinic tumor board suspects that the MRI imaging is actually showing effects of radiation rather than brain tumor growth!
