Re: The SMACKDOWN continues!!

Bonnie...I like what your surgeon said. Never thought of that before...but I suppose its true. Id like to have my old life back too...but then on the other hand, things do change after this kind of diagnosis. You see things differently than you did before..its an eye opener.
I like the idea of being knocked out until the steroid taper is over Denise. If your doctors go for that, please let me know. I would be happy to relocate. Im almost 100 percent sure I will have to take another course of steroids here in the next few months, because if my brain scan isn't completely clear they are going to cyberknife. Woo hoo....
You've lost nine pounds already! That's awesome. Continued prayers...
