I have been getting a number of inquiries about my health situation, so I thought I would send out another update. Some of you already know some of this I finished the 6 and a half weeks of radiation on Dec. 13. I have had two appointments at Princess Margaret Hospital in January. Basically, things are encouraging, but there are still some questions. On January 8, I was in the eye clinic. I had had an eye test shortly after the surgery. My eyesight had been affected because they removed tissue behind my right eye. They were concerned that the radiation would affect my eyesight as well, because it was so close to my eye. The eye test in January showed that, in fact, my eyesight in that eye had improved since the first test. Also, they told me the radiation would probably affect the tear gland, and cause me to have chronic dry eye, but it doesn't seem to have happened. The eye is still producing tears. On January 20, I had a follow-up appointment with the radiation oncologist, five weeks after I had finished the radiation. He was impressed with my recovery. He felt the skin looked good, and had healed up well. The bump on my right temple that he and the surgeon were concerned about has shrunk a bit, and is not red. He is still not sure what it is, but is possibly scar tissue and connected to the blood vessel they put up the right side of my face to feed the skin flap on my forehead. That seems likely, as it is on that path. However, we can't be sure yet, since they can't do any tests on it because the fact that I had radiation would affect the results until at least 10 weeks after. I see the surgeon again at the end of February, and the radiation oncologist in late May. There is another eye test booked in July. Generally speaking, I am getting my strength back, and feel better each day. I have lost a lot of the hair on the right side of my head. That should come back but apparently, of a different texture.
