Prayers and love to you honey! I'm glad you finally know what you're dealing with so you can kick it's @$$! Your young healthy self will be well!For some reason I don't get notifications when I am tagged.
Regardless, thanks, all for the kind words and wishes. Sorry I didn't say anything sooner, just sort of a private person when it comes to this sort of thing-- nobody knows but a few close friends and my immediate family. Thank you all, again, for the kind messages and thoughts and prayers.
For those who don't know, I was seeing a neurologist regularly from November till April or so, for spots in my brain that was causing abnormal pressure on the optic nerve in my right eye. As it turns out, the tumor was/is malignant and there's been some spreading of cancer.
As I said, I'm a private and shy person-- I've never been able to make too many friends online just because I'm so introverted and more content to read others' thoughts than post my own. Typing this out is painful enough for me.
I am in only a little pain most of the time. Sometimes a lot of pain and sometimes no pain at all. Doctor says chances are on my side because of my age and health.
You keep on keepin' on rockin' it hard little brother, 'cause you rck!For some reason I don't get notifications when I am tagged.

We love you too, Cody.Guys guys guys.... My heart is truly overwhelmed
Had my first round of treatment today. Went well. Was mostly me in a room by myself (and, occasionally, some other people)for a few hours. Not the most fun time in the world, but it'll be worth it! I've been pretty tired/weak the rest of the day, but I feel okay as of this moment. Just very tired. Thanks again for all the comments. I love you all.
I'm glad you're feeling good right now... one moment at a time, this is how you get through it. (((Cody)))Guys guys guys.... My heart is truly overwhelmed

Hi morgan - well that is the funny thing - they just send up a standard diet without worrying about stuff like that, apparently. He said he could not drink it (ulcer or not) as it tasted so bad.Hey Neesy - so glad things are looking up! Been praying.
Quick question. How can Andy drink coffee with an ulcer?
Awww - aren't you sweet! I think Andy just needed to rest up and sleep a bit. He is doing much better now.Not losing interest; miss the MB and everyone on it. Been sick for it seems a long time. Cancer is such a bitch.
danie Thanks for thinking of me.
AchtungBaby Good luck with your Immunotherapy
Neesy You have been in my thoughts; hope Andy is doing better each day. (You should get the Order of Canada for those nursing skills)
Want to be on here more I just seem to sleep so much.
Trying to do better.
It is good to have you here and by the way you do take very lovely photos. Healing vibes and keep that chin up!Thank you for your kind words, thoughts and prayers. My family is far away and sometimes being alone through this can have its bad days. The people on this MB
help me so much. You are interesting and fun; so many times you have me laughing and things just seem better when I am on here. I know I have not been
on this MB very long, about 6 months, but you feel like family to me. Not sure if I have a right to say that but I did anyways. You are very special to me and I treasure every moment spent with you. Thank you so much; it is a privilege to know all of you.
