Skull Base Institute / Dr Shahinian / los angeles, california
« on: June 08, 2006, 05:56:45 pm »
ok guys... if you all want a day-by-day account here it is.  While my husband and I were going through this major decision & surgery, I kept a journal.  Since we live in GA and our family is spread across the southeast, we decided to update this website daily to keep eveyone updated.  I have just made the decision (and been emotionally able) to share this with all of you.  Feel free to read our journals and follow us as we walk through our decisions and surgery.

I hope this helps to shed some light and help you through this very difficult time.  God Bless.

Eron and Drew - thanks for sharing. I'm still in a watch and wait but have pretty much decided that when it comes time I want one of two places and the SBI is one of them. I have not yet completed reading all your posts on the site but will - thanks again. I know it must be difficult to share but I'm glad you did!
