First of all let me say thank you for all the prayers and best wishes. We have been threw a lot. It started about 5 weeks a go when my wife started to have no use of her left side. The symptoms slowly went away and a week later it happened again. For four weeks it continued. The first ER visit we thought she might have had really bad Migraines and this was the cause. She was released Then on the third week she had them again. We still thought it was migraines. We went to see a doctor who said we needed to go to a Neurologist. The next morning I went to work and got a call by my wife about 5:00 in the morning telling me it happened again. I went home and got here to the ER in the Hospital. They took a CAT scan and found an abnormal mask over the right side of her brain. They said that the Hospital in Nashville named Centennial would be the best place to go so they sent her by Ambulance to Nashville. She was Omitted in a room to where they had done a lot of test to determine the cause. They where still baffled by what they where seeing. We thought for the moment she might have had what was called Mini Stroke. They found nothing in the body as far as anything that could be the cause of this and said instead of her having Mini Strokes she is having seizures. It is because what is lining the top of the Brain is aggravating the lining which is causing them. Threw all the test nothing came back bad but nothing was conclusive. They wanted to do a Brain Biopsy because the cultures they had sent out would take a couple of weeks to see if they grew and this would give them an answer to what it was. So the operation was set for Thursday. When the day came we where told her Blood was to thin and would be set for Friday. If the blood was still to thin then they wanted to do it perhaps Monday. So we waited threw the night. When Friday came Dr. Lee came in around 6:30 that morning and told us that her blood was still to thin. So he felt that she should be sent home and come back in a week to ten days to do the procedure. At the moment we are at home resting. She still has the headaches but the medications keep this down some. Her and I are grateful to be home. We are going to have to go to a Dr. Wilson who is a Neurologist that will do a follow up on her study. The doctors at the Hospital put her in his care because they are Hospital Doctors and do not have a practice Office like this Doctor has. The date to be there at his Offices is August 9th. Her Surgeon Dr.Lee wants to do a Follow up and asks us to make an appointment with his Office in the near future. For the moment I think and this is just me saying it, the Biopsy is put on hold because the last cultures to come back holding a possible cause will be ready around that time. In my way of thinking they want to see if the cultures come back positive. If they do then it will be malignant and I don't think they will do the Biopsy rather do radiation therapy to stop the mass from growing. If it is Benign I am not sure still what they will want to do to treat her. Our problem is to be put into limbo, still not knowing what is really going to happen. My wife remains strong while I remain a nervous wreck. The un-known is a scary place to be and trying to be strong is very hard and stressful. She has a short term disability policy to take care of our needs for 2 months but this has been put into hold because of know diagnoses. So this is where we stand at the moment. I want to thank you all again for your thoughts and prayers. I have learned you just have to live day by day to get threw anything.
