Title: Too Weird
Post by: Dog Lover on April 03, 2009, 07:08:40 pm
A gal I work with (sits next to me) was telling me yesterday that she knew someone at work who's husband had a brain surgery a few years ago and wondered if it was the same one that I had. We stopped by to talk to her and sure enough - her husband had AN surgery 2 yrs ago with Gantz. And what's more...the guy that sits across from her - his girlfriend had AN surgery in Jan...AND she said her neighbor across the street also had it.

Then there's Sue (VougeStar5 I think it is) and Stormy who are all within a few miles of me. Wow...is there something in the water? (If so, I'm buying bottled water from now on!)

How bizarre! 
 
When I told my friends at work one of my close friends Mum had an AN a couple of years ago and a good friend's mum back here in Aus had almost identical surgery as me but for a CPA meningioma.  Small world!

That is totally weird! I worked with a guy who had his out in 1999, and my brother's father-in-law had his surgery for his AN 3 days before I had mine (I grew up with the girl my bro. married and her older sister). Then my brother's mother-in-law finds out there is a guy at her work that has an AN now too. I dunno if it's in the water, the air, or whatever, but holy crap, we wonky-heads seem to be everywhere with numbers growing by leaps and bounds!

Nobody at my work has ever had an AN or knows anyone that has :).  I'm the only one!  :o
