I can't remember the exact date but Bobby has an MRI. I can't remember the chronological order of the tests and doctor appointments but he does. I've heard him recite it. It bothers me that I can't keep it straight or that I didn't write it down as it happened. I wish I was better at journaling.
The Neurologist ordered the MRI. Bobby calls while I'm at work. No message. I think that's because it's not good news. I call him back. He says very calmly that the MRI shows a "mass" at the base of his brain stem and wrapped around his carotid artery. As he talks, the word "mass" becomes "tumor". Does "mass" and "tumor" mean cancer? I don't think so. David thinks it's something he picked up during a trip to Mexico. The deep tissue biopsy is still scheduled for May 17th. We'll wait and see.
