Keri, thanks for asking about my little ones! They are doing great and growing oh too fast. My oldest girls are in first grade, just about out for summer already. Jackson is contemplating kindergarten in the fall and Addison just turned two. We're going to have a great summer!
Thanks for all your kind words. I had about worried myself sick about the whole check-up process and was fairly certain in my own mind that I'd be looking at a big re-growth. Even after my appointment I wasn't 100% sure but I got the MRI report in the mail yesterday and as I suspected they can see what they left. According to the report:
"Status post right transmastoid resection of right acoustic neuroma with fat packing extending into the IAC. There is a nodular enhancement along the right CP angle at the site of prior surgery. These finding most likely representing granulation tissue however recurrence in this area is not excluded."
So, I am taking that as - so far so good. They didn't measure it so it must just be barely noticeable. Next year they probably won't even be able to see it.
