They did an MRI last week or the week before.(I lose track of time here.) They said he is responding to the radiation treatments. Adding chemotheropy after the radiation adds a few % points to the cure rate. The last numbers I heard were that they are able to cure 45-50% of these cancers. They've done amazing things with the cure rates of childrens leukemia....hopefully the brain cancer cure rates rise as well.

Owen is doing great other then his eating. We are on the second appetite stimulant. The first one did nothing. THis one seems to work however, it is in pill form. Getting a 4 year old to swallow a pill isn't fun. The medication has a componant in common with marijuana. The first meal he ate while on it, he was laughing and talking to his food. I should have taped it...it was very funny.
