Thursday morning

Deb had a tough day yesterday. She rolled over and went back to sleep this morning. I was eager to find out if her gimpy leg was still a problem. Yesterday her leg would fold up under her, making her pretty much immobile. After she had enough sleep, she came slowly hobbling into the living area. So far, no folding leg syndrome, but still walking like Chester, if you remember him! (Actor Dennis Weaver- A star from the old Gunsmoke TV program) Remember Chester's famous line? What was it?

So, today's plan is lots of rest.

We have today off for allowing time for all the tests to be processed . We see Dr Nair at 9 am Friday and if he clears us to leave, we hope to have lunch and then head to Georgia.

We ran into a favorite nurse from Deb's treatment in past years. She also runs the Gamma Knife, which is a device that allows radiation to be used within the brain, breast, organs, and other sites where an actual scapel is not welcomed. It does this by using three dimensional targeting of the cancer spot from many low-powered Gamma Ray 'shooters' all focused on the target. The low powered rays are harmless to nearby tissues but are very powerful when they all hit the target from many directions. The Gamma Knifes are limited in number and location-www.uamshealth.com/gammaknifesurgery
