    Dodging a bullet, sort of

    I get to go home. The surgeon was in a little while ago and said after reviewing my films from yesterday he is not going to do surgery .....for now.

    I am due for another angio in a year. If it keeps growing or I have an incident sooner than he said I am going to have to bite the bullet and have surgery done.

    I was told to return to a normal life (fencing) and we will watch my head. Thank you all so much for your thoughts and prayers.
    Score 3 strokes, 4 seizures and 2 brain surgeries

    I've had brain surgery, what's your excuse?

    That's really great news, Darryl! Are you planning to go to Pittsburgh? Annette and I are looking forward to seeing you if you come.
    The spirit is willing, but the fleche is weak.

    Wonderful news, Darryl! Ah, the power of prayer, you gotta love it. I hope you make it to Pittsburgh, I plan on being there working the Armory. Would love to meet in person. Hang tough.
    Remember those who put their lives in danger for your sake.
