thanks for sharing , and welcome to the group. me well that's another matter all together. what it sound like is the little green monster at work. i don't have that problem because i am alone way to much of the time . still think of things to do but at the same time wish my wife were still alive and here now so i could ask her some questions. had a brain tumor removed last year and still healing. doc said it could take a year or the rest of my life to heal. i just know that I'm lonely and so i get on here and try to help as many people as i can solve or help understand or just a happy thought to get through the day. helps them and helps me. this Friday is my birthday and glad i have a good chance of waking up and seeing the day come in new. hope the rest of your day goes great.

Hi Randall .. happy belated birthday. How are you doing? Hope you are doing better. How long has it been? It must be awful being widowed and going through this. I, too, am widowed and just been diagnosed with 1.8 cm, left inferior frontal lobe with edema. 2 Neurosurgeons suggesting craniology due to the edema. Stanford neurosurgeon said it’s small but have asoc/edema and get occasional mild headaches. There is calcification which tells them it’s been there for a while. She said there’s a 50/50 chance it will grow. When I asked what she would do if she were me, she said she would wait 4 months and do another MRI.. Do I wait and chance getting more neurological symptoms, such as seizures and grow larger, or do craniotomy surgery with all the risks? I’m 72 yo. My sons want me to wait. Do I want to walk around with a tumor and swelling taking up real estate in my brain or do surgery and spend the rest of my life healing?

Randall - Happy Birthday! Do something tomorrow to celebrate your birthday! God put you on this earth for a reason and you have to figure it out! Take a walk, meditate in a church sanctuary, go to an animal shelter and volunteer, go hold new borns in your local hospital, so many things. So get off the internet and start moving. Ask a friend to go with you. Anything, just GO! Dolly
