Surgery date set!

Today we met with Dr. Elbabaa, the neurosurgeon. I have to say I was impressed with him and we feel that Brennan is in great hands! Not a person I thought we would be talking to in my lifetime! He went over Brennan's case and felt that surgery is definitely necessary to help Brennan. So with that being said... January 23rd is the set date for his surgery. We have to be at Cardinal at 6 am with a surgery start time of 7:30. He will have what is called a posterior fossa decompression surgery.

He will be in the hospital 2-3days at the most and missing 2 weeks of school. Even though it seems so far away it will be here before we know it!
