He is having the first of his Deep Brain Stimulation procedure appointments next Thursday! They will implant the first of the leads (electrodes?) in his brain; one week later, they implant the 2nd, and on 11/29 (our 38th anniversary!) they will implant the "controller". There was a lot of testing to ensure that he was eligible for the surgery and that he will likely benefit from DBS. We welcome all prayers and good thoughts!
