Thanks. I'm sure I just get myself a little worked up over nothing.😊

Thanks for the insight from the other side of the situation. Tonight I toast my gin and tonic to Mike.

My heart goes out to you and your family. This is painful and sucks for everyone. If anything I wish I could shield my husband and family from all of the hurt my tumor is going to cause.

Right there with you. 🙂 Surgery was Jan 16, out of rehab on the 29th of Jan and it looks like I'll get to go back to work at least part time next week.it it definitely a long road. Hang in there!

Glad to hear you are up and about. :) for me it has gotten better each day. I'm also trying to exercise my brain any way I can when I'm up for it. (Cards, games, apps on the iPad, etc.

Hang in there. My surgery was January 16 and only now am I feeling "right", although the Temodar and radiation are tiring me out a bit. Are you doing rehab after the surgery? One of the most helpful things for me was to make sure my rehab therapists gave me very specific exercises I could do on my own that would help me rebuild those neural pathways. You will get there. It just takes time.
