Captains Log Stardate....

Hey y'all Keith here, i dont even know where to start, its been 6 weeks since kara updated anything and alot has happened in that time. she has done chemo within that time and scans has showed that her cancer is still stabilized but has not shrunk as much as it did since the last scans, which means it is effective but not as effective....that being said, she's no longer doing double chemo because it was killing her blood faster than she could make it, hence the 2 transfusions, so shes been doing single chemo with adjusted levels to try to balance out effective treatment and quality of life....well, starting a couple of weeks ago she started having trouble negotiating unlevel terrain, not due to her leg swelling, which is better, but probably due to motor neuron degradation, hell who knows anyways, like 9 days ago, during a sxsw event, she fell on her face....totally on her face, that ordeal is a whole 'nother chapter, but since that event she seems like she has alzheimers, we did go to our scheduled dr visit, did labs and chemo, and concluded that her symptoms were probably a combination of her aggressive chemo, full head radiation and slamming her face on the ground.  since that visit, a concerned friend urged us to get another scan of her head, which we did, which is another epic chapter, but the scan revealed only minor activity that shouldnt be causing the symptoms shes experiencing,  well, since the scan, i've asked for a visit to a neurooncologist just to have a brain nerd look at everything and to see what their 2 cents say.....all that being said now, its been an extremely difficult experience to endure, which really goes with out saying, but realizing that time, love and life are precious...you know the old saying, don't sweat the small stuff and its all small stuff, well, life is in the details...some how even the smallest things can be monumental, where as the big things you can brush aside with a casual swipe, please take the time to smile, hug, and laugh.  i really thank everyone in their support for my family and i through this, until next time, peace k
