Message from Brenda (aka Teff)
« on: November 05, 2009, 05:11:30 pm »
Got an email today from Brenda (Teff).

She has been unable to post to the forum, since the change to the website was made  :(  but is working with the folks @ the ANA to get the issue resolved  :)

Brenda reports that her BAHA site is healing very well and that her BAHA Gotcha Day is November 18th  ;D

I don't actually "make" trouble..just kind of attract it, fine tune it, and apply it in new and exciting ways

Thanks, Jan ~

I'm sorry to learn that Brenda has problems logging on due to the site change but I'm glad to know that the ANA folks are working to resolve them.  I had a few problems logging on after the change but fortunately, I was able to resolve them within a few days.  I don't think I was the only member to struggle with the changeover but I'm a bit surprised that Breanda is still unable to log in.  Good of you to relay the news regarding Brenda's BAHA experience and the good news that she is healing well.  I'm looking forward to seeing Teff back here, soon.

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.

Glad to hear Brenda is doing well.  Thanks, Jan!  I had problems logging on for almost a week and when I did loggon I couldn't post any replies.  Must be all in the name!  :-\  It finally was resolved.  I hope Brenda's issue with it is resolved, too.

Hi Jan,

Thanks for the update on Brenda!  I'm sure she can hardly wait and look forward to hearing how she likes her BAHA.

I hope by the time Brenda gets her processor, she's able to be back here on the Forum so she can tell us about her Gotcha Day in person.

I second that thought Jan.  BAHA gotcha days are so exciting!
