Not a whole lot changed the following day (Wed. Feb 14) at our second doctor visit (which was another really wonderful one), except he felt it would be important to do another MRI in 2 months rather than 3 months, just to keep a closer eye on the spinal chord spots that are still there. I had a blood test the same day to check on some of my other slowly recovering symptoms (thyroid etc.) resulting from the radiation treatment, and we had no response back from that (which is a good thing!) Even though my energy still takes dives on some days, we're able to function pretty normally as a family each day. (I sure am anxious to drive again soon, though!)

On an interesting note, we got our new Blue Shield quarterly premium bill last week, and the amount had increased by 50%! We're perfectly willing and ready to pay it, especially to make sure our coverage continues, but for the interest of it I called the insurance broker who originally helped us sign up for it. Turns out the increase is because David turned 30 last month!!! Well, at least it's not my fault. (hee)

Thanks as always for your blessed prayers and support. We continue to be so very thankful.
