Well, it is official. Brain surgery on 9-30-14. The day before I will be getting an MRI and they will glue things on my scalp (probably for more accurate locations of things). Then I go to the hospital at 6:30. I think I will be the first and only case in that room, and what a room it is.
Here are the specifics of my surgery:
One exceptional neurosurgeon
One neurophysiologist - his whole job is to monitor my cranial nerves to make sure nothing
happens to them.
One anesthesiologist who also put the exceptional neurosurgeon to sleep once. I guess this guy
can be trusted.
One special room. The actual room is an MRI machine so they can repeat the MRI that was
taken a day before the surgery. They can make sure RIGHT away that things are good.
These things comfort me. I will be getting the BEST care. I wish I didn't need it, but I do. Whatever happens after surgery, if bad, I know it couldn't be prevented. If it is good, I owe it all to the above.
