That would be fantastic if you could spare one or two. We could have them framed. Everyone has been so helpful so far. It has been so scary for my wife and I. I just started having seizures several months ago, my first neurologist took an MRI and told me it was a slow growing tumor. He said we would do an MRI every 6 months to make sure it wasn't growing. Then, I had a second seizure. I went to the Moffit cancer center, they took me in for a biopsy, my surgeon came into the post op after my surgery and told me that she felt it was benign in her professional opinion. But of course we would still have to wait for the pathologist report. 5 days later I went back in for the results. I told my wife not to bother coming with me because everything was going to be fine. Beside, I was going right back to work after the appointment. Of course, everything changed in that appointment. So terrifying to hear this news all alone. Here I am 42, I work out 5 days a week, never smoked, never any drugs other than tylenol, eat healthy, occasional drinks. It was overwhelming to say the least. I called my wife and told her to drop everything and let's go to Disney. I met her at the Animal Kingdom Lodge, went to the pool, got drunk and got a tan(I needed one)Next Monday, I'm going in for surgery to remove it and gamma knife, but even with that along with chemo, absolute best is 3 to 5 years. I will fight it because that is the only thing I know how to do. But I am still scared to death. You guys have been awesome.
