Word From Our Neurosurgeon

I received a call from our Neurosurgeon’s office this afternoon.  His nurse wanted to make sure our questions were answered and wanted to emphasize the importance of Radiation Therapy.  The nurse was very happy to hear that we’d already started treatment.  She also explained how the tumor was not a seperate mass but damaged brain tissue and therefore not operable.  The damage that would be caused by the operation would cause more side effects and quite likely be life threatening on its own.  Basically things we already knew.
