MRI Results

Dear friends,
The MRI today was quite disappointing but not entirely unexpected.
The question now is where do we go from here. I became aware a few
days ago of a study being done at The Montreal Neurological Institute
involving brain tumours with my particular cell type. I called my
neurosureon in Halifax and he tempered my enthusiaim a bit saying
that a similar study in Boston several years ago did not pan out. He
knows the researcher in Montreal and is going to call him and get the
dope on it. Here"s hoping.
It"s amazing that I can have so much wrong with me and feel so
good, This has been the best summer ever what with retirement
and feeling so good.
To add to the list, Suzie miscarried three days ago and Pam had
a gallbladder attack and needs to get her gallbladder out. We all just look
at these things as another reason to hug each other.
Don"t forget the value of hugs.
Love
Barry

Hi Dr. Ling

It never rains but it pours, However every cloud has a silver lining. I know these are tired old cliches but they are shared with heartfelt sentiment. We wish nothing but the best for You, Suzie, and Pam in the days ahead, May God watch over you all. Thanks again for keeping us updated on The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hi Barry,
Sorry to hear MRI Wasn't what we all wanted to hear. Bad week for you all, with Suzie and Pam as well.Definitely time for hugs all around.I send hugs for the great support you gave to all the athletes at Sports Centre Physio. At the time we never thought of hugs, but we should have, even if the athletes would have said "Oh Yuck!" Janet Rogers
