KMA for a Year Now (8/3/11 - 8/3/12)

Friday is the one year anniversary of the discovery of brain tumor #1.  Ironically, I will be undergoing gamma knife radio-surgery for the 5th time that day. An 8th and 9th tumor (which we have been monitoring since their appearance in June) have increased in size enough to require some action. 


It seems the tumor gods did not consult my suggestion list for how I intended to celebrate the fact that I have far exceeded the typical 3 - 6 month post diagnosis survival time. Rest assured, the "I am still alive and kicking" celebration will still occur.  It is merely being delayed.

Since every obstacle, in life presents an opportunity to improve our condition, the extra time between the end of this week and when I am back on my feet again will allow me to come up with something extra cool to do!
