My Sister Nancy is Having Brain Surgery on 9 March - Bob Schroeck - 03-08-2011 She's got a benign tumor right on the surface of the brain, under the occipital bone, in an area of "low activity" (insert obligatory "big brother rags on little sister" comment here). It's expected to be a routine, if longish, procedure, with little in the way of anticipated side effects. There apparently will be no need for rehab afterward, for instance. I told her I would post a notice here so that all and sundry may offer their wishes for a successful procedure and speedy recovery, and so that those inclined to prayer or its equivalent in their belief systems may do so. So I have, and thank you all in advance. -- Bob --------- Then the horns kicked in... ...and my shoes began to squeak. - ordnance11 - 03-08-2011 She has my prayers and best wishes. __________________ Into terror!, Into valour!

May she have the most boring and uneventful of surgeries and recoveries. - Dartz - 03-08-2011 Good Luck ________________________________ --m(^0^)m-- Wot, no sig? - Jorlem - 03-08-2011 I wish her the best. My younger brother had a brain tumor that was impacting his pituitary gland removed a few years back, and he's doing fine now.

Update - Bob Schroeck - 03-10-2011 Nancy has come through her surgery with flying colors, and last I heard was in recovery. Thank you all. -- Bob --------- Then the horns kicked in... ...and my shoes began to squeak. - robkelk - 03-10-2011 Good to hear! Thanks for letting us know. -- Rob Kelk "Governments have no right to question the loyalty of those who oppose them.

Good to hear good news medically. ''We don't just borrow words; on occasion, English has pursued other languages down alleyways to beat them unconscious and rifle their pockets for new vocabulary.'' -- James Nicoll - Jorlem - 03-10-2011 Yay! This is always welcome news to hear. I wish her a speedy and successful recovery. ----- Stand between the Silver Crystal and the Golden Sea.

Here is hoping for a bland and boring recovery (cause exciting and new are never good when dealing with medical issues). -Terry ----- "so listen up boy, or pornography starring your mother will be the second worst thing to happen to you today" TF2: Spy - Black Aeronaut - 03-10-2011 Outstanding! (^_^) - ECSNorway - 03-10-2011 *clapclapclap* Yay! -- Sucrose Octanitrate. Proof positive that with sufficient motivation, you can make anything explode. - Jinx999 - 03-10-2011 Good to hear. I didn't want to risk wishing luck. - Bob Schroeck - 03-11-2011 I just spoke to my sister on the phone, and she is just as bossy and argumentative as ever. She did not sound at all like I expected someone who had brain surgery less than 36 hours ago to sound like -- she sounded as though I had just called her up at home one lazy afternoon. She should be out of the hospital by the end of the weekend, and she's already demanding to know when Peggy and I are going to come down and see her. So I think she's recovering just fine. -- Bob --------- Then the horns kicked in... ...and my shoes began to squeak. - Logan Darklighter - 03-11-2011 Fantastic! Good to hear! ^_^ |
