| I guess I should be really happy. I have passed my one year and the Brain tumor is still gone.
I think I have changed in a lot of ways. I see things differently than I did before. I take life one day at a time and don't take anything for granted.
At 52 years old I was in the hospital for the first time in my life.
It all started with a problem with hand tremors , then led to my speech mixing up.
Funny thing is I did not have pain until after the surgery.
I went to a neuro doc and he did an MRI and showed that I had a rather large Menigoma ( I can't spell anymore). So the day before Valentines day 2009 Dr. Grigorian preformed my surgery. Yep, the day was FRIDAY the 13th of all things.
I went through the surgery and came home a few days later. The pain was intense and the bandage helmet I had to wear was tough. But I came home with my husband and my mom who took care of me.. Not being able to was my hair was tough too ,cause I washed it every nite.
This is July 30th 2010 and I am making an online diary so I will not forget my life before and my life after. Here lately I have been having bad memory problems, I can not do numbers anymore. Sometimes I have a hard time reading .
I stay home with my three dogs and three cats. I read, watch tv, get on the internet and play video games.
I used to sell on Ebay and make extra money to help pay bills around the house. But now I can't do that any more .So we don't get to eat out , or buy little extras.
We have Blue Cross Blue Sheild and they helped pay for the Surgery and are still helping pay for my medical doctors. But we are paying too much as well.
Just as sure as we get a little ahead a new bill comes in and sucks away all the extra.
I was looking forward to getting an IPAD so I could play games on a bigger screen.
Funny thing is the hand tremors turned out to be Essential Tremors which I will have for the rest of my life.
I am not allowed to drive because of my seizure medicens so there goes my freedom.
So for now I stay home and watch the humming birds fly. The sun come up and go down.
And be thankful God has given me another day in this world ,another day with my husband and another day with my family (some of them).
Oh,well I will stop writing for now,hands are shaking too bad and it taks along time to type
