HollyAlonzo – Never Giving Up Hope

Deaf, Blind, And Determined

Recovering

I am back in business.  My husband has done a great job of letting you all  know how the surgery went and I want to thank him for that.  I will read any and all comments when I get home on my regular computer

 

I was informed that I was not able to get the ABI because the tumor was so  agressive and destroyed everything.  But we all  know that I have God on my side.  As long as I remember that I’ll be ok.  We just have to keep the faith.

 

I saw Dr. McElveen’s partner, Dr. Cuningham, today.  I liked him a lot.  He said that Dr. McElveen will be by tomorrow to give the orders, but it looks like I will be able to go home tomorrow.  They took the dressing off of my head today and all looks well.  My hearing on the left side is a little worse but I think that is because of the swelling and me feeling like I need to pop my ears and can’t.  THey told me not to pop my ears or blow my nose for a while because they don’t want me to cause a spinal fluid leak.

 

Sorry if my post is a little scrambled right now, but I am slowly getting back into the swing of things.  They did take a picture of the tumor while it was in my head before they took it out.  My mom has that picture, so when I get hoem I’ll scan it in and post it up here for you all to see.

 

If all goes well I should be going home tomorrow.  I’ll be sure to let everyone know.  Thanks for everything.
