Update: My Beautiful Brain
October 19, 2020 I had a follow-up baseline Brain MRI with contrast.
That date was the 31st year Anniversary of my very first MRI experience
which found the first big ol’ tumor.
​
October 28, we had an appointment with my new Neurosurgeon, who I will never need in that capacity Because…. Wait for it….
As he entered the room he stated, “There’s nothing in there.”
​
My reaction, “What! What do you mean there’s nothing in there? There’s a beautiful brain in there!”
​
Through his laughter he said,
​
“Let me rephrase that. The brain tumors are GONE.”
​
“What!?! Show me!!!!” He did and they are! His report stated,
​
“….there is certainly no new finding in her brain, and no other treatment is needed.”
​
This is miracle stuff! They are GONE! Following 17 years after my craniotomy, they were found during an MRI.
​
Now after 15 years since the second diagnosis in late 2006 and Gamma Knife Surgery in 2007, they are GONE!
​
Yes, the one was gone before seven years after my craniotomy and that too was miracle stuff.
​
Then 17 years later again rocking my world two appear.
​
Now, today, I could sit in that fearful anxiety saying things like,
​
“It’s only two years away from before.”
​
Or, perpetually I could marinade in the possibility of what, right now, does not exist but what if it does in the future.
​
Instead, I choose to live in the bliss of miracle stuff. Not until…..as there may never be an until.
