Before continuing with treatment on return Dave underwent an MRI scan to check progress on the tumor. The image report revealed that the tumor is smaller than it was three months ago. This is a very important point in Dave's journey and is a reassurance that he's doing something right. And this to us is GREAT news. While this news is a huge cause to celebrate, to which we did so by going forth and feasting in vegan cuisine, he realizes that there is still a huge task ahead of him and there is still much work to be done by him and the amigos.
Dave is constantly working on bettering himself physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually; all realms of being which we can say he supersedes in. At the moment he works on his drawings, artistic expression, and reading and writing to help overcome some brain fog side effects from the surgery and low-dose radiation. He is also determined on regaining his coordination and building strength to help with mobility and ultimately to be able to walk independently again. Part of our days involve day dreaming about simple passions like bmx and surfing. Dave continuously reminisces on days spent on the bmx with amigos, and looks forward to being a part of the action soon.
To sum things up, "resistance" is a word to describe the hard work being put in by Dave over the last couple of months; everyday is a struggle and he continuously strives for a better way of life. Help him with strength building and support him in any way you can...
... 'treat yourself, be happy, smile for yourself and for someone you love' ... is his message.
ThankYOU
