Meghan began having some difficulty with her facial muscles (slurred speech) and balance in early March. She was hospitalized at UCLA Medical Center where it was determined that the cancer had spread to her meninges, brain stem and spinal column. She received 20 radiation treatments to those areas at UCSF Medical Center. This treatment was directed at stopping or slowing the progression of the nerve damage/paralysis caused by the cancer.
