ok so i'm a little confused about what was SUPPOSED to happen today.. i think we were just supposed to call this dr. goldman instead of actually going up to the hospital but we did anyway but he saw us anyway, which was nice. he's a really cool guy, like the cool uncle vibe type thing. tells bad jokes and stuff ya know?
well they didnt have my MRIs or anything so he was just going off of what my other doctor had told him so i'm not going to post much up here right now because we're not positive of anything.
dr. goldman is a pediatric oncologist who specializes in pediatric brain tumors (such as my own)
dr goldman says that since my tumor has not only characteristics of a stage 2 but also of a stage 3 and he thinks that we should treat it more aggessivly in turn. which i think is reasonable. it'd be harder at the time but it'd help get it out faster right?
he's suggesting that i take part in this clinical trial testing a new treatment. we're not 100% positive if we're going to do it but i think we're leaning towards it. i'm not fully aware of the other option/options.

i'm not really that well informed right now, we're going back in tomorrow when all of my information will be there and dr goldman can make a better judgement about what he's talking about cuz it's sorta hard to talk about something you havent seen and he was tenative on telling us things simply for the fact that he hadnt seen any of my stuff.

OH MY GOD. GUESS WHAT?!?!

I DONT HAVE TO TAKE ANY MORE FINALS.
NO HISTORY, ART, OR BIOLOGY.

do you have any idea how much i just wanna give those teachers a hug? and ms fraher, cuz i dont have to take geometry either. i mean seriously. my mother told me that today and i am still just like oh my god thank you lord. just like sigh. whew. huge weight off my chest. cuz i'm missing tomorrow too cuz we're going in again ya know? but i almost feel guilty you know? cuz  its like... everyone else had to take it and i dont want to seem like a flake or something... i'm such a nerd lol but still i feel a little bad..

so i'm done with school.
that was a little anti-climactic.
