paul verdon Posted February 3, 2009 Share Posted February 3, 2009 Hi all I've update our profile and tried to keep it short. A lot has happened since last September when I wrote last. The worst was an emergency brain tumor removal for Michael January 8, 2009, when we didn't know the cancer had gone to the brain. The are a number of lesions.We holding on to hope but it's difficult. Michael has completed full brain radiation. This scares me. BTW We got married on our 25th anniversary on Oct. 7th. All though Calif. voters won a ballot we are still protected so far and we hope this discrimination gets thrown out by the courts. What a party we threw!

jaminkw Posted February 12, 2009 Share Posted February 12, 2009 Paul, I'm sorry the year started out so poorly for you and Michael, but it must have at least been a comfort that you had tied the knot with a grand ceremony. Congratulations and I'm crossing my fingers that the courts do the right thing for those of you who were married before that infamous vote. Keep the faith because I know of many people who have benefited greatly from brain radiation. Judy in Key West Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
