I returned a little while ago from my appt with the neurosurgeon. Even though my EEG was abnormal, everything is A.O.K. He says that because of the brain surgery, my EEG will always be abnormal. So I guess abnormal is normal for me--Tell me something I don't know.

I can start cutting back on the anti-seizure meds, too.

I will see him again in June after having an MRI done, then I think he will release me to a military neurologist for follow ups. So I feel great! The only news that was remotely negative was that there is a fairly high recurrence of this type of brain tumor, but I'm not too worried, because it is almost always benign and I'll be under a neurologist's care for many years to come, so we'll be able to catch a new tumor early.
Also, we went to see the cherry blossoms in DC. They were beautiful, but I'm afraid they are almost done. Last week would have been better. The best part of the day was when Rob found someone's lost wallet. He looked through it and called many numbers on business cards and scraps of paper, until finally I think someone called this man saying we were looking for him. He called us when we were on our way back to Quantico (sitting in I-95 traffic, really--ugh), so when we pulled in at the base, we stopped by the post office and mailed the wallet back to him. He lives in Maryland, so he should get it tomorrow. Needless to say, he was relieved and we felt so good to be able to do something good for a total stranger and
have our kids witness it. We were as blessed as he was.
So I'm celebrating with pizza!


Y'all have a great night. I may check in later tonight.
