Took my Dad to the hospital yesterday and he didn't want me to go in since I can't walk well.  His doc wants him in to keep from walking and driving and he will see a neuro today about a brain tumor of all things. 

He has a mangioma said to be small and in a good place to be treated.  He may have several different options.  I heard that a doctor at Shands can zap one with magnetic resonance.  I guess I better get back down there and just have the car valet parked and get wheeled to his room. 

My father has always been bigger than life to me - I can't believe this is happening to him.  He seems a bit disoriented here and there and has disequilibria.  I guess I better get ready and get down there.  I'm a bit scared.
