When my wife Robbie was in NYC for my son’s back surgery last week, she visited Rhode Island Hospital that’s big on fractionated gamma knife radiation surgery. The head neurosurgeon told her that no way was her acoustic neuroma tumor 4 cm… rather it was 2.4 cm.
If true (she plans to corroborate with the other clinics back here in MN) it means she could save her hearing if she opts for the gamma knife surgery. She’s pretty dang happy about this turn of events.
On Monday, ABC TV News carried a story about this type of surgery.
Meanwhile, my son is doing well. Should be back at work in the next week or so.
