Rob had his regularly scheduled MRI last week and we got the results today.
There is some indication of growth in the same area as his previous cancer
and it is thought that it is possible that it may be back. Now I read that
report before I handed it over to the oncologist and it looked more like
probable rather than possible for the cancer to be back, but then I'm not an
expert. I also have noticed that Rob is having more problems with memory,
balance, and cognition (understanding).

So Rob has to have another MRI next month and we'll go on from there. If my
suspicions are correct, Rob will probably be put back on chemo, but
probably not Temodar this time, and will be monitored further. I think
we'll be looking at that trip to Ft Campbell sooner than I'd originally
planned.

Surely you will have a consultation w/either Rob's primary doc and/or
his
oncologist re the recent MRI before he's due for the next one. Hopitus

only strong hopes for all of you in the time to come. Written words
on
radiology reports can be frightening, never mind depressing and I hope
the docs had something reassuring to say about the report. You are the
backbone of your family and I can't send anything stronger than my
wishes for the support you know you have from your friends here.
