Hi Deb .....

So glad you have a date for surgery and can now get things ready to make things easier post-op.  You have been waiting for a long time so it will be good to get that AN out of there and get on with your life.

My thoughts and prayers are with you.

Deb ~

Congratulations on your surgery decision.  Believe it or not, one of the hardest parts of the AN journey is now over.  I wish you all the best and have taken the liberty of adding your surgery date to our 'AN Treatment Calendar' : http://my.calendars.net/an_treatments/d28/09/2009?authenticate=&display=M&style=B  Feel free to edit it as you may wish.

4.5 cm AN diagnosed 5/06.  Retrosigmoid surgery 6/06.  Follow-up FSR completed 10/06.  Tumor shrinkage & necrosis noted on last MRI.  Life is good. 

Life is not the way it's supposed to be. It's the way it is.  The way we cope with it is what makes the difference.
