Surgery + 2 days

Manford is doing better today, walking much more easily (they still put this kind of handle belt on him when he walks, but then just walk along beside) and talking and understanding much more clearly. This picture is from just the day after surgery, and he is looking better every day; I'll take another soon. I took a picture of one of the MRI pictures...I couldn't look at these before the surgery (they showed them to us the day before, but I put them away) because they were just too scary. This is the worst looking one, really; it looks like the tumor is taking over his whole frontal lobe. A lot of that is edema, though, and it seems to be responding to steroids and the surgery. keep up the good thoughts.
