And today we found out even three rounds of chemotherapy and major surgery will not weaken Dad's amazing bones. He fell on his hip once again this afternoon, pulled out his J tube in the process, went to the ER for replacement of the j tube and x rays of his bones, and still, nothing broken. All is well except for a big bruise and he was sent back home.
An eventful day!
This is a blog to keep everyone informed on Dad's Deep Brain Stimulation Surgery in August 2011, and also dealing with malignant stomach endocarcinoma treatment diagnosed November 2011. Brain Surgery Stage 1, 2a, 2b, 3, & 4. Soon the stimulator will be programmed (increased) every three days again with a hand held device.

No chemotherapy reccomended!
Dr Ghandi set up and appointment for Dad, at Dad's request to see the radiologist about possible radiation, but he may not need it.
Dr Ghandi said Dad looked on a scale of 1 to 10 at about 9.5. He is doing exceptionally well.
