Hey guys
Just wanted to post a quick update about this. I went down to my mums for a visit last week and was able to attend an appointment with her. She had the radiation on her brain about 3-4 weeks ago and the radiologist did a few little things to test her reflexes and coordination and balance and all that was fine. He said that combined with her lack of headaches or other symptoms makes him believe that at the very least the brain tumour probably hasn't gotten bigger and as such he's willing to give the radiation an extra few weeks to have its full benefit before doing more scans and moving on to the next thing. I'm not sure what this will mean long term but in the short term at least it seems positive.
Just wanted to thank you all for the kind words, it has really helped :)
