Countdown Abbreviated

Posted By on December 6, 2007 at 5:54 pm

I was planning on continuing to do daily posts counting down the days over the next week leading up to my surgery. However, because of a call I got from the folks at Duke about an hour ago, that plan has to go by the boards.
They’re drilling me tomorrow.
Check-in time: 0730. I should be home on Saturday, with a week or two of downtime after that. It seems pretty fast to me, but I suppose it’s not all that complicated a procedure, as brain stuff goes.
I’ll just take this opportunity to say thanks to all of you for your support during this… well, ordeal seems too strong a word, freighted with too much meaning. It’s been a test, though, most definitely.
Later.

    Er, I guess Saturday is THIS Saturday–today! Wow. But as you’d said, it’s comparatively simple surgery. Just not used to nearly outpatient brain surgery…!
    Let us know as you’re able!
