« on: April 01, 2008, 08:34:37 pm »
... I am thinking of your and hoping all went well ((((HUGS))))

I am pre-admit this Thursday - hopefully I will get a date ---- took the first step though and requested a 'meeting' with my kids JK and Grade 3 teachers to make them aware :O  Even that in itself it scary to me ....

Denise,
Thanks for the good thougts.  Good luck with the pre-op stuff, that was a breeze.  Let me know when you get your date.  we can talk and I can share my experience with you as so many have done with me.  It really helps to hear that others made it through and you will too.  relax and take deep breaths!
Hugs
Hope

Denise I remember having to tell my sons teachers. To say out loud that you are having brain surgery is hard to do but be prepared for the reactions you will get. They may be odd....

G/L to you at your pre-op visit.
