Decision Made

The five of us went to the Neurosurgeon's today. The girls wanted to hear for themselves what the options were and all the other stuff that has taken place. The Dr. is very adiment(sp?) about trying everything possible before we plunge into the removal. The verdict: we are doing the shunting. There are risks of bleeding and other things that could take place but the risks are much less than taking the jump to remove the annurysms. The plan is shunting ; see if it changes anything within 2-3 weeks THEN we do not have any other options except to remove the annurysms. The shunt will hopefully drain the fluid away from the annurysms. If it works, then in future they can look at trying the coiling/ stenting after another angigram (sp) would take place.
O.k. that's the scoop. I have some relief knowing I/we have at least 3-4 more weeks. Thanks for all the prayers...Keep them coming.
NOW FOR THE LAUGH OF THE DAY!------------------------------------------------------------------------By the way..............it has been brought to my attention that my grammar is not up to "Future Teachers of America's" Standards... That would be Jessica and Stephanie. ;0) So my apologies for anyone out there that it bothers. Just pretend that this is free writing and I do not have to worry about grammar when I am spilling my guts to everyone. That's what I do.... LOLJust in case you are curious.... I received A's in my Comp. classes sooooooooooooo I do know the correct way to write ; I just choose not to on facebook..SO ARE YOU STILL LAUGHING...
