‘cos I worry these days…

Yes, I know where the NorthDale area is! It's not too far from where I am.

I know how it is to miss a beloved pet. I still can't pull into my garage without thinking about leaving enough room for the dog to get by! Plus, she was the last vestige of structure in my life. Eventually I found a vet who would come to the house, as she was too big for me to get into and out of the car by myself. I like to think she's resting peacefully in the back yard.

Oh, the Rays! Went to the game last night, and we beat the hated Sox! I was never a baseball fan either, but started going to the games with my husband when they started here, and liked it so much that I have continued without him! I have tickets again on the 29th – come over and go with me! That is not just an idle offer. Email me!

Thanks for thinking of me.

Oh Kimmie (ha new name)  the crap only gets worse.  But things happen and happen they do, as long as I still get to go and argue with  bears for Blue berries. 

The CT on brain was abnormal. the doctor here stated it was a subdural hemotoma measuring about 11mm on the left and that the brain has shifted 8mm to the right.  So I was called back to see my doctor after they did frantic phone calls hunting me down.  (was at the dentist)  left msg for Bob work, left msg on dotters cell, two calls on my home phone, one from my fam doc requesting I snap to attention and call her at home.

I did, she told me a bit, and ordered both bob and I in to her office before they opened.  We did, then we collected the disk from our hobbithall, and she phoned the big one in Toronto where I had the previous shunt instalation. 

They will do a MRI asap and said that it was not a subdural hemo—- but that brain fluid had somehow escaped the ventricles and flooded the oposite side from where the shunt it, and caused a few bleeds.

All this over a massive headache.  But my fam doctor said no wonder your head hurts so now I can be called   BONNIE WITH THE TWISTED brain.  cos the reports states my brain has shifted those 8mm and has begun to twist. 

The MRI I have been waiting for since FEB is finally booked for AUG 3  but if I have to have a shunt which is programmable it has metal in it, so there goes my MRI of abdomen, which has shown through a CT just a couple of weeks ago, that new leisions have appeared where previously there were non.  They (doctors here) want a MRI  since our hobbithall doesnt have a MRI I am waiting for the hoppital closest.  Will be 6 months from request to august 3.  But I need this first thing with brain looked at first.  I HATE this, but rather be hating than doing nothing but nothing forever.

Plus the doctor who did the surgery in the first place, is not working there, so I have to get to know the new neurosurgeon hope he has better attitude and not so condescending.  His resident whom I saw in the emerg dept at the city hospital was ok, but man, my fam doc told me to pack a bag, because I should not be bopping around.  But they let me come home, (weekend doncha know)  he said I am far too well to be in a hospital and to just keep on the quiet side and no trampoline haha.  I feel like a ticking time bomb….so either headache when camping, or fresh surgery.  Cannot cancel camping or my life in the woods.  Birthday and all be up there.

Sorry for the long note.  But all you guys and guyetts kknow I love you.

Hi Susan   if you can give me contact info, (I don't know what you mean on the face book site, I have face book but is there another place?  my IMAC computer is still in the hospital but if  you can figure out how to get me your email addy, when my comupter comes home I can attach various pictures.

But I can tell you  it looked from the outside as a messy smudgey job of mascara, and since I don't wear it it looked weird.  they did first a small biopsy and it came back same as what your daughters report came back, only 'not clear margins'  so a second and third biopsy which called it finally  a Lentigo Maligna Melanoma or LMM for short. and full total excision was done.  with full thickness graft to make a new lower lid.

now way down in the conjuctivia  (I am not sure of the name but pull lid down on your own eye, and peer down.  it should be red  mine is sort of brown now, I will show pictures to you when I get the other computer back.

I am not one hundred percent sure if I have before pictures, in close up mode, cos as I say it was a goodly line of 'smdgey badly put on mascara)
