We got an appointment with Dr. Boyer, a neurosurgeon, a month earlier than expected! Praise God! Breck and I met with him today. He was very nice and spent a lot of time with us discussing the biopsy, and possible treatment afterward, etc. We decided that the only way to know anything is to go ahead and do the biopsy just to get some answers. He admitted that it could still be nothing. But we won't know unless we do this. He also said that the biopsy may not even be definitive. So we need to pray that we will get definite answers from the biopsy, one way or another.
We scheduled it for July 2 at St. Mary's. I will have to go in the day before to have another MRI that they will use for mapping to go to the exact spot during the surgery. It is actual surgery. They will be putting me to sleep and cutting a quarter sized hole in my skull. I asked if they replaced it, and he said they could put a plate there, but we didn't reach a definite conclusion. I may need to bring that one back up.....
I am really not excited about this whole thing. The thought of having staples in my head and part of it shaved... just not too exciting. I haven't even thought about what if the results come back bad. I can't do that right now. We will just keep hoping and praying that everything comes out fine. I know that God is in control and am so thankful for that. I truly believe He gives us peace in times like this!
So surgery July 2. Pathology reports soon after that. Then we will go from there!
I had a blast! Breck bought me a new Vera Bradley purse which I love!!! Birthday dinner tonight with my family- party! and lunch on Sunday with Breck's family! I love birthday weeks! :)
