April 15, 2024 - in Oxford , Maryland

Today we launch the public view version of our CaringBridge site for Nancy
Cooper. I know many of you are familiar with CaringBridge, but for those who are
not, this will become info central for her communities of family and friends.
You will be able to see the most recent information we can provide, respecting
Nancy’s request that the more the merrier. I am not a Doctor, and this is not
intended to be a tutorial of technical medical information. It IS intended to
build the support she’ll need in a fast changing situation.

By way of background, Nancy was treated for a slow bleed hemorrhagic event (aka
stroke)at the end of January, 2024. The team stabilized her, and she entered two
weeks of Acute Rehabilitation at Inove - Mt. Vernon. It was hard work, but Nancy
jumped right into it, getting much needed rest in between therapy (
occupational, physical and speech/language)sessions. She was discharged in
mid-February, and returned to the peace and quiet of Oxford. Ongoing testing,
and MRIs , revealed the presence of a tumor, which turned out to have been the
source of the bleeding. It was pressing on her optic and speech pathways in her
brain , and needed to be removed asap. The tumor was removed at Georgetown Un
Med Center, on April 3rd with immediate relief, particularly in her speech.

Unfortunately, the biopsy revealed that the tumor was/is cancerous , and Nancy’s
condition was diagnosed as Glioblastoma . Although the tumor was removed, it
left behind cell sized versions of itself, which try to re-form . To forestall
this , an aggressive treatment plan has been recommended by a Team of superb
physicians and oncologists at G’town. Nancy is in the process of understanding
those choices open to her.The ‘pre’ work began yesterday, and a meeting was
scheduled for Tues, April 16th, to lay out the plan.

Yesterday, tho, Nancy had a seizure ( maybe 2) , the second one while in the ER
at Easton, MD Hospital last night. Her ER Doc got in touch with the team at
Georgetown , and it was decided to ‘transport’ her Georgetown , as soon as a bed
can be made available. She is in the ‘best of care ‘ world , there.

Nancy’s Faith Remains rock solid, and we encourage you - her family of friends ,
to pray for relief , and allow her time to heal. I know many of you are anxious
to see her, but hope that you can accept Caring Bridge as one step in that
direction, that will lead us to that gathering party she has always dreamed of .
Are there enough jumbo crabs in the Chesapeake to feed all of you ? I will rely
upon the loaves and fishes example !

Thank you to all of you who have reached out , and sent flowers , and chicken
soup !Thank for being a part of this journey, and reflecting your love for
Nancy.We had determined that we would laugh every day ; no anecdote gets edited
, so share away.We will make sure she gets every message left here , and Caring
Bridge will let you know when there are updates.

Love to all of You-

Russ
