This is my brain on blog



Sorry. That was a tacky title. It makes me feel better, though. So, here it is... probably more than you wanted to know. The brain surgeon said that this is growing from the dura, which is apparently, the kind of tumor you want to have if you have to have one. (Love it when they say things like that.) It's easier to remove and the prognosis is usually pretty good, generally benign. I don't have a date yet for surgery, but it should be next week, hopefully - the sooner the better and the less I have to wait and worry. I like the doctor - he seems like a nice guy. If you are a medical type person and would like to read more about what this is.... check out: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Meningioma

  1. Jenn,
    Thanks for linking to this site on your FB posting about your surgery. You can share more here. No need to apologize for getting the word out via FB--when you have so many friends that's probably the best way to do something like this.
    We will be praying for you and Jeff and the boys.
    I love the inclusion of Day By Day also. That's all we have anyway, and it's good to know the Lord is with us through each one.

  2. Jenn,
    This is Abbie's mom...don't ever apologize for communicating! Technology makes it easier these days and less traumatic in that you don't have to continue to repeat the same story over and over; plus it gets a lot of people praying for you. Alas, you are in our prayers. Keep looking up!
    Michele
