Sorry to hear the news, but glad to hear you're getting it sorted.
Hope you get well, and back posting soon.

Yikes! Not fair. This is not at all what you wanted for the holidays. Glad to hear that the procedures have gone smoothly so far. Best of luck for a speedy and thorough recovery, Jay.

There are of course different types of brain surgery and tumors.
Mine was apparently well contained in fluid which made it easier to get out and less problematic in the long run.
It�s kinda weird how I feel. My higher brain functions are there and working fine...well, as fine as they ever really worked in my case, but little things my typing is off. My eyesight is off too, partly because of a complimentary corneal abrasion they tossed in with the procedure and partly till the area that�s been messed with settles down I think.
Basically, the physical symptoms, nausea and blinding headaches are gone which make me feel physically better, but my head seems about 15% off...it�s really hard to quantify...but some things just are harder to do...more delicate stuff...and it feels like there is fluid in my head...and yes, I told the doctor that.
I have much to be thankful for this Thanksgiving Day. My wife told me about what happened after we got to the Emergency room since I don�t remember. She said that the doctor told her that had we not gone in to get the cat scan that night hand had the surgery, I might not have made it though the night.
And yeah, there are indeed fewer things in life than can help one reevaluate things that having someone poking around in your head.

This is where you try to prove you're the real Jay and not a Thing, right? Wiz, get the blowtorch- I'll do the blood test. LOA, tie all the others to a couch.
Hmmm...I was thinking....what did they fill the void in your skull with? I mean, do they use packing peanuts or something?
Mabye they left a implant- you get zapped each time you link in Bush's latest outrage.
Really, look at it as a fresh start- a second lease on life, as it were. I bet your New Year's Resolutions will be poignant.

Watch out for squirrels then. You dont want to wake up with one gnawing on your head looking for the prize inside.

Well, now thankfully, they will find even less of a prize.

Damn. It's really scary how someone... anyone... can just suddenly be almost ripped away like that by a mere bunch of out of control cells not betraying their presence in time. Glad you're still with us.
