health update------again

Hi again Gang,
 
            Well I just got home from my radiation treatment and everything went well. Now it's a matter of time to see if it helps my "Dizzy Spells".  The  importent thing is that the tumor is no longer active.
 
             will keep you up to date as required.       
 
                                     love  ya,  Dad

health update

Hi  Gang,
 
            As  most of you know, I  have  been  having  Dizzy (light-headedness) spells for the passed few months. No  one  seems  to  know  what  has  been  causing  them. So  this  Monday  they  gave  me  a  CT  Scan  of  the  brain.  (No smart remarks)  The  results  showed  a  small  tumor  in  one  section  of  my  brain.
 
            As  a  result,  I  will  be  receiving  what  is  called  "Gamme  Knife  Surgery"  this  Thursday (tomorrow 9/15).  This  is nothing  more  than a  type of  radiation.  I  go into  the  doctors  office  at  7:30 AM and  should be  out  by  2:00 PM  assuming  everything  goes  OK.
 
            This  tumor,  of  course,  has  to  be  removed  but there  is  no  assurence  that  this  is  the cause  of  my  "Dizzy"  spells.
 
                                        Love  you  all,    Dad
