how I became what I am now

If you told me 5 yrs ago that I would be marrired with A life threatening illness and that I would have undergone an AWAKE craniotomy.   I....well quite simply I would be afraid of you.


Used to work for the Department of Aging and Disability Services.  Started tripping more and falling down in fact it got to where I would fall everyday.  But it was the extreme nausea and the vomiting in the midmorning that made me go to the doctor.  Sharon had sent me home.

I confessed to the doc that my head was constantly hurting and it was just something I had learned to live with.  That caused him to order an MRI. Due to the fact that maternal Grandmother and Maternal cousin have brain cancer. ches and I have anaplstic astrocytoma, his is on the right, mine is on the left both of us it is in our frontal lobe.  Grandmama opted to have surgery to remove her GBM (on the left side) to extend her life a measley few months.  What can I say I want quality (I'll be a bigger burden if I get paralyzed in my right side) Not quantity and the only reason I did the surgery is because Dr. Fredrick Lang was a smooth talker and a quality surgeon. Now My brain has fully switched from left to right.  and now I am tapping into my creative side.

Let the de-crisping process continue
