This post is from Paula on the Prayers for Brandi FB page today Feb 14th, 2014
Brain tumor has reoccurred in the same spot as last surgery spot. And is the size of an egg. She is having pain which is a 10 on a scale of 1-10. Even with pain meds. Weakness in arms and some imbalance. He is admitting her today and starting IV steroids and will operate this weekend or Monday. Doesn't want her away from the hospital due to what can happen. So here we go.......this particular melanoma cell area is extremely aggressive and he is considering whole brain radiation about 3 weeks after surgery. Thank you all and I will keep you all updated as when surgery is scheduled.
Tomorrow is her 4 year anniversary from diagnosis.
Keep her in your Prayers and we should be home by Tuesday if all goes well....and it will! Thank you all.....we love you all and appreciate your never ending support!!

Happy "Clear" New Year!!
From Paula's FB post today, Jan 2nd 2014....
CLEAR NEW YEAR!!!
Brandi's PET scan is clear....she is truly a miracle. She has been clear in the body for 11 months!! MRI follow up on the brain in February.
I actually feel somewhat part of the "normal" world again!! It's hard to explain unless you deal with this evil disease. Finding joy everyday knowing there is a tumor growing steals that joy. We have a new found JOY and PEACE !!! Thank you to our awesome God and God Bless you all this upcoming year!!!
