Gamma Knife

Posted Oct 22 2008 4:53pm
So I guess I am pretty much up to date on my story. Occasionally I may remember something that I have not shared about my experience, like after my first surgery, about my third day in the hospital I was going to the bathroom and I lost my balance and fell. The nurse walked me to the bathroom but left me alone. I was reaching behind me to get a toilet seat cover and I leaned too much on my left left, not realizing how weak my leg really was. When I fell I started crying, it really hurt, and I hit my head either on the sink or on the floor. I didn't really hurt myself, I was more scared than anything. My physical therapists and two of the nurses came running in to help me. Luckily my mom had left for the day. I would have hated for her to see me like that! The nurses got me up and I was fine and I was really careful every time I went to the bathroom after that!!!

Now I am waiting to hear from the Gamma Knife Center. I have been waiting for three weeks. I was supposed to have the treatment this week but there were problems with the insurance company. I think we finally got it taken care of yesterday and someone was supposed to call me today to let me know but no one ever called. I tried calling them and I kept getting the machine. I called the Doc's office and let them know. The Assistant there was gonna try to contact the G.K. center for me but I still have heard nothing. I really don't think any of these people realize what it is like to have to sit around and wait for treatment. It really sucks! I would really like to get this over with. This treatment should get rid of my aggressive tumor, the one that keeps growing back, for good and its supposed to get rid of the inoperable tumor and the new tumor as well. Leaving me with just one tumor, the one that hasn't grown at all since we found it. The one that could go for years without causing any problems. That is what I want, I would like my life back. I want to go back to work!
