Finally I have some good news!
I will have my posterior fossa decompression (aka brain surgery) on Tuesday June 22nd, 2010 at Toronto Western hospital. The DH and I will have to fly in on Sunday for my pre-admission appointment at 8am on Monday. I'll be in ICU for 1 - 2 days and then the ward for 2 or more. Depends on how I feel and if any complications arise.
Thank you everyone for all of your support the past almost year since I was diagnosed. Some days I wouldn't have made it through without your kind words and support.
Big hugs to everyone! And I'll keep you all up to date as things go along.

I know you are excited that the date is finally in sight and you are about to get some relief from pain. It's been a long, hard road, but you are about over that bump.
I will be thinking of you and praying for God to guide the surgeon's hands, as well as a speedy, complete recovery for you.
Blessings! ~ Dorothy

I'm so glad you have a date for your surgery. What a relief this must be to not have this in the air anymore. I'm wishing you all the best and keeping you in my thoughts!
Take care of yourself, and make sure to treat yourself gently in the meantime!
