His sight is getting worst at this time..So we are very cautious at what we do...Denise

wow denise i am so happy your son is doing so well. i dont think this will be the case for stephen, i have to call his mom soon, but this morning things did not look good, it is cancer, and its all over his brain...... he is 18 and can make all of his choices ..... he said he doesnt want to live with a feeding tube, or blind, or mentally retarded..... this is so totally crazy, i just cant believe it all, he had a cat scan 6 months ago when he got a concusion playing football, they rev. and compared the scans and could see nothing just 6 months ago..... i think they termed his a malignant glyoma thanks for your prayers

Thank you so much for your kind words of encouragement and good advice. I moved my daughter into my room and he is sleeping in her bed. I wish I could convince him to move out. He said he wasn't going anywhere cuz' he says I would just make him look like the bad guy that left his kids. He said as long as he pays for this house, he is living in it. He just doesn't understand, or doesn't care that moving the kids out of this house and neighborhood (we are 4 houses away from their school and tons of friends) would be much more traumatic than explaining that he had to move out for awhile until we can sort some grown-up things out. There is an easy way to do this and a hard way and apparently he wants to do it the hard way. He doesn't realize that I refuse to be his prisoner. I will escape this and he will have to leave....eventually. i am strong and I will get through this. It is just going to be very hard. Thanks for your advice and friendship. I'm glad I have you to talk to about this. -Lisa
