Unfortunately, Dad is moving slower and slower every day. He now has a cane in order to get around and told me yesterday that he could barely make it up and down the hall of our house by himself. So sad, especially coming from someone who has climbed mountains and biked and hiked hundreds, or probably thousands of miles in his life.
Apparently, there is one of the 7 lesions on his brain that is right next to the motor center. This is affecting his ability to control the left side of his body. He met with Nathan Uy last week and is hoping to get in the week of 1/14 to undergo Gamma Knife Radiation. It sounds pretty cool, check out this link...

Thank God for Kansas athletics which gives our family all something to take our mind of this shitty, shitty stuff. Stay tuned for pictures from the Orange Bowl!
