HURRAY!!! The suto tumor is nearly gone!
It has been a very exciting day for me. This morning I had an appointment with my neurologist and he said that I was almost completely healed and that soon I would be able to stop taking my meds for the the cranial suto tumor. He said that my eyes look so good and that my weight loss is going so well that he doesn't see me having any problems with swelling in my head in the future. He said he was proud of me. How often do you get a doctor to say that he is proud of you!!! Well anyway I am so stoked. No more headaches and no more leg and feet and hand tingles. No more of my limbs falling asleep at inappropriate times. No more being told I am not allowed to try and get pregnant and no more stinkin condoms!!!!!!! But the biggest one is that after one month I will be med free! YEAH! I can't believe it. I really wasn't ever sure that this stupid disease would come to an end but alas, I have found a break. I really have to thank my Heavenly Father for his loving embrace in our life and of course my loving family who have been there from day one to stand beside me and of course my loving friends who also have been there from day one. How is it that I have been so blessed. There really are so many people to thank for their ever vigilant love and support. From those who put our name in the temple to those who attended the temple by our side. From those who gave us wonderful help with medication (my sister in law Sally! Thanks again) to those who gave us tips great tips for dieting. Of course to all the people that just listened to me whine. I swear I should have bought a big block of cheese to go with all that whine!!!! I love you I love you I love you. Thank you for all the support. Before I close this post however, I have one more major thank you. Brent, my love, you are my rock. You make me smile when I feel so low and make me laugh in the middle of tears. I know I couldn't have even been able to go through this without you and it is because of you that I have kept on loosing weight. You are my chocolate supreme sundae with all the extra toppings!!! (you know what I am talking about) I love you.
