My Brother’s CT film from Japan.  The dark spot is the tumor.  The top of the film is the front of his head (forehead).

My brother’s flight from Japan landed Christmas morning in Seattle.  After doing the Christmas morning thing with Devon’s family we headed back to my parents around lunch time.  He seems in good spirits but he’s in obvious pain, he’s tired, he’s weak.

We played Uno, had some lunch, ate ice cream, tried a rice snack from Japan, and generally hung out around the house.  My brother had his CT scan film from the hospital in Japan so I had to look, and I took a photo.  In the above picture you can see the tumor, it is the large dark area in the upper right corner.  It is up in front near the forehead.

Tomorrow we go in to UW Medical Center in Seattle for an MRI scan.  I’ll be really interested in hearing from the UW doctors about the details of this thing.

More to come as details emerge..
