Title: Gamma Knife Tomorrow
Post by: Echo on September 10, 2013, 06:27:02 am
Well the big day is less than 24 hours away.  Gamma Knife tomorrow!
Thanks to everyone who has offered advice and support over the past year.  I'm looking forward to having the treatment behind me and finally moving on to the recovery stage.  Definitely having a few moments of anxiety but nothing that I can't handle.  I'll post an update as soon as I am able and look forward to sharing nothing but good news!

Cathie.

Piece of cake.

A walk in the park.

Easy as pie (but maybe not as easy as Pi).

Like falling off a log.

You'll do fine.

Cathie,

best wishes. You will do great. Remember to take it easy afterwards, it is easy to overdo it. And use these cold compresses on the pin sites to avoid swelling.

Hi Cathie-

Just wanted to wish you well tomorrow; I hope, like me, you will find the procedure to be a non event!

Keep me updated and feel free to call/email me directly.

Thanks everyone for sending the well wishes. Much appreciated and yes the ice pack is ready to go! I'll create a separate post for my post Gamma news.
