Sorry for having to do this but....
We had our MRI and CT scan this AM at 2:30-4am and our neurosurgeon reviewed the scans. I hate to say it but they were able to see a tiny remaining portion of cavernoma next to the main area they worked on.
They couldn't see it earlier b/c blood masks a lot of things and its a no no to do exploratory in the brain. It's important to realize this void isn't a perfect circle, more like an area with inset areas here and there. This particular portion we missed was covered by the brain and it is apart of the same one so its nothing new.
We are going back in for rd 2 now to remove this remaining portion to be safe should take 1.5 hrs, yes this sucks but we need to fix it - period.
It's going to be ok, Dana's got this she is incredibly strong and she knows what "tighten up" means to the greatest extent.
You're right. It is going to be OK. I firmly believe that you guys can handle anything life throws at you. Just one more bump in the road. Keep that amazing attitude and remember that God's on your side. Hugs and Prayers!!! It's almost over.
