Finishing Up 2018


Welcome back to the next Thriving Not Just Surviving Post.

This post is written by Maureen. I moved to St. Louis this past weekend. It has been wonderful celebrating the holidays here and settling in.  

Greg has had quite a few follow up appointments since the last post. Here is a quick overview and update: He has seen his Orthopedic Surgeon and has been released from the “gun slinger” brace and has now been assigned the “sling shot” sling. (Picture provided). He will wear that for another six weeks while starting physical therapy to rebuild the strength and range of motion in his right arm and shoulder. His neurology appointment went well, with no change, but continuing the current seizure medicine regimen. We had our three-month chest scan and appointment with the oncologist as well. The scan showed that the cancer is stable but Greg will be undergoing additional testing over the coming weeks to further analyze the remaining cancer.
It has been an eventful 2018 and we are ready for a more stable and calm 2019.

We will continue to use the blog as a way of updating everyone. Thank you for your prayers and support!
