-- Hilary's Latest Medical Information --
August 16, 2006
A week ago, Tuesday, Hilary saw her neuro-ophthalmologist, Dr. Carter. Visual fields show continued improvement (click HERE and also HERE to see the latest scans), so her Prednisone dose was dropped from 3 pills a day to 2 pills a day. She will see him again in a few more weeks and if everything continues to improve, will be decreased to one steroid pill a day. Pray, pray, pray.
This Tuesday, Hilary slept through another MRI, then saw Dr. Bogaev who studied them intensly. His word was that the tumor is continuing to shrink / die from the Gamma Knife Radiation of July 2005!!! The films are being sent to Dr. Sheehan in Virginia to see EXACTLY how much it has shrunk. We'll see soon and pass it along when we know.
Love,
the Morrows
