[QUOTE="Feeling Sad, post: 698659, member: 19245"] No, they can't see past the titanium plate. If the tumor was growing back, it would be in that area. I will take it as good news, even though it is a bit unsettling. It was lit up like a Christmas tree light by the contrast and looked large. The doctor is being honest and we just have to watch it. I asked him if it could be scar tissue and he said that it could be. The radiology report cited the area in question at great length, but ended saying that it was 'normal' healing after a craniotomy. They never know for sure until it changes. It just appeared suspect to my doctor and he did appear concerned. He kept looking at different slides. After my reading, I told him what had happened with my schizophrenic son. I had talked about him over the last 8 years. He was surprised by the fact that he did not qualify for a psychiatric evaluation. He was saddened by the way the police handled it and that my son is now homeless. He asked what was keeping him from coming back home and I told him the restraining order. My paranoid son's worst nightmare was realized with 5 police at the house. He will never come back. I will never see him again. It is sheer torture to both miss and fear my son. I have both flashbacks and fond memories of his younger years. The previous weekend, while I was waiting for my report on the mri, I called to get the balance on the small joint account shared with my ill son that I put a small amount in each month. He was down to just $22. It was Saturday night and the banks were closed. I cannot transfer online because he has an unknown password set up. I know that he took $2,000, but I do not know if it was spent on his car or something else. I pictured him out there for 3 days with just $22 and worried. On the phone, it does not give the location. He has stayed about a half hour away for the whole time. I cannot tell you why, but it comforts me knowing that he is not far. Even though I had a therapist actually say that he was like a shark with blood in the water just circling to get me. Really. Anyway, I noticed a new name given of a liquor mart and I googled it. It is in Fresno which is many hours to the North of me. I was heart-broken. I put money in on Monday during my lunch break and asked them to print out the last month's statement. Yes, he was in Fresno. The very last entry, though, showed that he was back just a few towns away. I have no idea why he went there. Maybe with the extra money he decided to take a trip. He stayed 1 night in a motel and had his hair cut, both firsts for him since he left. It is horrible not knowing what he us up to or how he is feeling. My doctor, seeing my off the charts stress told me that I need to somehow cut him out of my life. I asked him, "How do I do that?" [/QUOTE]
