Hello friends and family,
Suddenly on November 13, I was rushed to the ER. By November 16, I was undergoing brain surgery for matastic stage 4 malignant malinoma of the brain and lung. Needless to say, one cannot really be prepared for that. I've been out of work since then, and hope to return March 1. I'm finding I need help day by day to stay current, and to catch up with a few things I fell behind on before I realized just how much was happening in my brain - my speech was off, I was forgetting things, and I would zone out and not even realize it. At one point during an hour long meeting that normally I would take notes for, I had only recorded 6 words... 

I'll begin radiation and chemotherapy next week, and when that's over, I'll know more about the prognosis. I'm scared, and I'm asking for prayers and support in anyway you can!

God bless each and every one of you,
Joni
