Hi All - My sister is scheduled to go to Loyola on Tuesday the 5th for a consult and surgery once again.  The gammaknife didn't work I guess, the tumor was too big.  They said it was borderline "too big" but they  decided to try it anyway.  We hope she will have surgery sometime next week after the consult.  Has anyone else had surgery in Loyola?  The doctor we are meeting with is Dr. Thomas Origitano.

Hi Justa:

Is your sister still in the hosptial?  How is she doing now?

I hope you can get in ASAP - you said her symptoms were very bad?

Hang in there Sis,  Kathy

Thanks for the update Justasis! I pray all goes well for the both of you.

I've never heard of that doctor but I'm sure someone here has.
