Thank You, Thank You, Thank You. I am going to take our news in a positive way and keep partying it up this summer. We just spoke with our doctors and they have decided to wait and do another MRI at the end of the summer. Dr. Crawford spoke with Dr. Friedman (the surgeon) and Dr. Friedman isn't convinced this is cancer. He said the "spot" is so small he would like to wait and give it another two months to see if there is any change to help their determination of what this is. It would be a risky procedure and before they put Bo through it, and with everything else he has gone through, they would like to wait.
They did apologize for flip flopping, but I assured them that if they are putting off brain surgery, I am okay with that. So we wait some more and pray, pray, pray that the "spot" leaves. The way I figure all our prayers have delayed this surgery, so a little more time and this will go away on it's own. Somehow I need to try and find a way to get Bo to meditate and visualize this leaving...
Love to All - Enjoy your weekend
Christi, Bo and Addi
PS - please say a few prayers for our friend Mindy's Dad. He was recently diagnosed with colon cancer and they are going through the beginning phases of how to deal with hearing the "cancer" word. I do hope they will find their strength quickly, find the best method to fight this, and realize cancer will not get them down. If you remember my Dad was diagnosed with color cancer 4 months after Bo was diagnosed with lung cancer, no one is slowing him down! Love you all...

Thank you Christi, we have an ultrasound on Wed and then a CT Scan on Monday June 1st so we are trying to deal with what we are told not what we(I=overthinker) imagine. Thanks for talking with me the other night. I told my dad your dad's story.
