Gamma Knife procedure done today 4/18

[Sue]

Yeah, I'm tired.  I slept pretty good last night - didn't have to take a pill in the a.m., got shoved back to noon today. So that was helpful.  I told my auntie that I felt like a shakey old lady this morning. But i was hungry!  I look like the Wreck of the Hesperas. Anyway, I'll be glad when the drugs are done with. It just takes a little time to get the body kind of calmed down here, I guess.  You just want to say, "Okay, Cells, get a grip!  Everybody just calm down. It'll be okay. Let's just all work together on this and we'll be fine."  Now we know why Dr. McCoy didn't want to be "beamed" anywhere. Too hard on the cells!

Sue,

I wish "bones" passed by me, ran his tri-corder over my tumour and gave me a quick shot and zap!

[Sue]

I thought of the same thing!!  I guess MRI's and such are the first step to tri-corders!

Sue, thrilled you are doing ok and like you, on the last stage of the decacrap... but guess what? Things are all downhill now and time for life to get back on track as best as we can!

Huggles to you and hang in there... almost done!  Hope you are getting some rest!
xoxo

Hi Phyl,
I actually had a much better nights sleep last night. Thank God!  I still feel tired, but I went on a walk today, then took my blood sugar  which was down to 72! I was shocked. So I am celebrating with a cookie!  Sleep is a great restorer, and when that goes, it can eat up your energy really fast.  I am doing a bit of housework...just a bit. Sheets need changing. So, trying to build back my strength, but not over do it.  I forget that I'm 60 now, and it does make a difference. I'm sure that's why the drs didn't suggest surgery to me. If I was in my 30's or 40's or it was much more serious, they probably would have. I hate to think how long it would have taken me to recover from surgery!!  Thanks for your support.  I'm anxious to get to my drs appointment on the 4th to see what he has to say.

Sue, oh, I hear you... starting to get "draggy" now.. doing the decacrap every other day now (1 today, LAST one on Wed!
YAY US!)

My appt is May 8, so you and I are neck and neck... and WE are going to be fine, have terrific outcomes and celebrate with wine instead of sugar fixes!

Hang in there!  I'm right BESIDE there with you!

May is looking like a great month to celebrate postive results!  Phyl do you want red or white?  What goes with AN?  lol

Sounds good, I think?  Have you bird lovers watched The Wild Parrots of Telegraph Hill, yet? It's a great documentary.

Hanging tough,

Sue
