Cool Pictures from MRI and CT Scan

First MRI picture of the tumor. White spot on right side. 
This picture below was taken during her Wada Test. You can see the wire on the lower right side being sent through her artery.
This next picture below was taken during the CT scan while they placed the head frame on her head. You can see two of the four pins that were secured in her skull to keep frame in place. 
In the picture below, you can see the laser fiber that was place in the tumor. This picture was taken at some point during the "burn". 
This colorful picture of her brain is just cool! Not exactly sure what it tells us. 

This picture shows the black hole where the tumor once lived!


This last picture is a neat profile picture of Erica's head. 

Heading to CT!

Booked our flights and are super excited to finally be able to visit family and friends in Connecticut. We will fly into Hartford on Dec 25 in the evening, and we will stay through Jan 6.  Looking forward to saying goodbye to 2013 and welcoming 2014!


Student of the Month!

Erica was recognized as one of Preston Middle School's Student of the Month!  We are so proud of her.
