Gamma Knife October 2nd



It looks like I've gotta couple of resilient buggers (not boogers) in my brain. I qualify for a procedure called Stereotactic Radiation Surgery. SRS or Gamma Knife, Cyber Knife. The thing is there are no knives involved. I am getting it sometime soon but I don't have the date yet.

The procedure takes about 3-4 hours (prep time included) it's all done with lasers (201 to be exact) and a hearty dose of anti-anxiety meds. It should be a One and Done thing.

Feeling great other than a little nervous. My appetite is awesome and...heck...It's Gator Football Season!!
