May is Brain Cancer Awareness Month. Once again I have changed the look of the site to reflect this.
It has been a busy month. We had a Tiki party at the house for my 50th birthday party. Thanks to everyone who was able to come out. We survived taxes and just yesterday saw my parents off to the airport after their stay for a week. Below are a few pictures from the visit.

We had a great visit with my parents. You may notice the picture of Jen in the wheelchair at Huntington Gardens. This is not due to any deterioration, merely something we do if we go someplace that involves a lot of walking/time on the feet. It definitely makes it easier for her to maintain enough energy and gives her something to hang her Novocure pack on. Even so, she usually ends up splitting the time between sitting in the wheelchair or just walking behind it.
Jen has been doing well. She has started doing Physical Therapy again a few times a month. We have to be careful with how often she goes so we don't run out of what the insurance will cover if she ends up having a greater need for it later in the year. Jen continues to have memory issues, again probably from the radiation. She has had a few headaches in the last couple of weeks. It's probably nothing, but obviously we question everything as we know that headaches can be a sign of tumor growth. They could also just be headaches. Jen has been having some allergy issues from everything blooming and believes it could be related. In any case, Jen's next MRI has been moved up to this Thursday (not because of any concern, merely due to our doctor changing his clinic days). As always, please keep Jen in your thoughts and prayers as we hope for another good scan. We will keep you posted.
