Awesome Brain Surgery Scar 2011

Another successful surgery-thank you Dr. L!
I spent a lot of time wondering what I would find under this mask...
I had a better expectation of how much it would hurt this time, so it didn't seem so bad. I also had no expectation of getting to sleep, so every 10 or 20 minutes was a treat. Altogether-not nearly so bad as the first time; mostly (I think) because I knew what I was getting into. And it is worth it!
Now for checking out (hopefully this afternoon), healing, and getting better. Dr. L is very happy with his biopsy, and this time I'll keep my metal staples on for two weeks while I heal.
Everything has gone just great, my pain meds are flowing (smile), and I am going home for Christmas. Thank you all for your love, concern, and support!

Merry Christmas,

Love, -Kristina (& Mark)
