One more day before surgery on Monday. Since I'm scheduled to report in at 6:30AM, we have decided to go up to Denver on Sunday to be close by. Snow and wind are predicted for tomorrow, so we want to allow plenty of time to get there.
Today, it's a sunny 77 degrees, but by tonight the temp should drop almost fifty degrees! That's the way it is in Colorado!
Many have asked, so here's what's happening. Dr. Ojemann will perform an endoscopic ventriculoscopy - that means he won't be exposing my brain to a very great extent. This is good. The less exposure to air the better. The operation will take about three hours. I expect to be in the hospital (University of Colorado Health Sciences Center)about three nights. Recovery time should be a matter of weeks.
Dave has offered to take over the blog, maybe posting one on Tuesday.
It has amazed me to discover how many people have had brain surgery! Thank you for coming out and talking about it. That has been a real comfort to me. Your experiences have bolstered my confidence.
The love and care of friends have been truly wonderful. Thank you all.
