On the road, again…

Ok, not quite.  But only 31 more hours until I can get out of here!!!  I am SO excited about that.  I've been emailing back and forth with my neurosurgeon today and she said that my post-op MRI looks good.  I had that done yesterday.  She said that the tumor that she left in there [...]

Kyle says it best

What my family and I went through today has been tough to describe. Even now, I cannot find the words to express what I am feeling and thinking.
