Keep Me Hangin' On
What does one do when faced with going to the Skull Base Tumor expert Uber-neurosurgeon on Tuesday?
Well, I am not sure what 'normal' people do, but I do research!
Here is a picture of the interior of the skull base, what the brain actually rests upon.
Brain removed for good interior viewing.
Now, here is a picture that I can use to show you exactly where my 'Thingy' is growing.
Okay, see the round red area that says 'Jugular Foramen'? Good. Now, right above that and behind that arrow there, is a roundish dark area before the whitish area.
THAT is where my tumor is hanging out. Half attached to bone, half not. It is the petros apex, just above the carotid (jugular) canal.
Okay... class dismissed....
for now....
be well,
Dawn

I hope they can soon get you sorted. I'm preoccupied with the other end of my anatomy at present. What my daughter calls Bum Plums. :-(

Tuesday is here and I am praying the Uber-neurosurgeon will be more than adequate to the job as well as being a nice person to be around. I am praying his team is skilled and also good to be around. I am praying nothing will go wrong for you and that you will soon be able to look back on the surgery as done and feel better.
loving you
