Life After The Knife

I had Gamma Knife Radiation yesterday and was sent home today. It went okay- no major problems, just four perfectly lined and symmetrical drill marks in my head and an overnight stay. Gamma Knife, although tough to handle, is a by far a walk in the park compared to having a craniotomy.

What's on my head was the cage to de-mobilize it while operating on me. They knocked me out and bolted it onto my head- it weighed a ton of bricks! Then they needed me to be awake to perform the operation. I wasn't happy, but went ahead with the procedure.

I look like Robocop!
