Dear Kristin,

Tell your Mom not to fret too much about the attachment of the head frame, if she has Gamma Knife. I was very anxious too, but it was not so bad. I couldn't really feel the screws go in, just felt pressure. They gave me an injection of a numbing agent where each screw would go, and the injection, to me was the most painful part. I have to say though, that it didn't hurt me as much as the first vaccination I got at the University of WA vaccine trial! I never have liked needles much though!
