Such big words to use on a Friday night They *think* I have a tumor behind the knee, but it's not palpable and after 2 EMG's..We kinda came to the decision (Okay I told them :x) that we weren't exploring that way for it anymore. Since the problem that it was causing (numbess in the foot) is minor, they decided to just leave it for now. Pete Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted November 27, 1999 Report Share Posted November 27, 1999 Hi Jennette, It was great to see you in VA last month. I sure will have you in my thoughts on Monday and will pray that your knee surgery and recovery go well. I'm always reminded of what Jordan said once to us.. how she found it amazing that she cld cope with problems, one by one. Like her, you deserve an award for having overcome problems so well over the years. As when you were in NY for surgery, your friends will be there with you Monday in spirit. They'll stick around, oh, I'd say always! Have fun on New Year's, try not to worry, and I'm looking forward to seeing you again next fall. TTYS, ΓΌ <<Message: 25 Date: Fri, 26 Nov 1999 18:33:37 -0500 From: " Jennette Braaten " >> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted November 28, 1999 Report Share Posted November 28, 1999 Get better quick Jennette remember you still owe me a dance. Jeff W. I will be going in on Monday to have a 4 cm tumor removed from the back of my knee on my GOOD leg. I wrote a while ago asking if anyone had a " nerve sheath tumor along the coarse of the common peroneal nerve at the level of the knee joint " and no one answered. No one has had that?? I have had intense pain in that leg for quite a while. I have a very good " pokerface " so those of you that saw me at the con weren't aware of it. Anyway, I wanted to wait until that convention was over (I do not miss those! and this date was as soon as they could do it. Greg's coming to visit me over New Years Eve, so please put me in your prayers... I've got 30-days to get back on my feet again before he gets here!

Guest guest Posted January 19, 2000 Report Share Posted January 19, 2000 Hello Caren, I do hope your surgery turns out good. My tumor was a big one too but not in the same place. It was from the L2 to the L5 level. I think you mentioned something about getting MRI's of both the head and spine. I've been meaning to ask the Crew something about this: When I was first diagnosised, I had a CT scan of my head because they were looking for a brain tumor or something in my head that might be putting pressure on my optic nerves. They didn't find anything there.

Guest guest Posted May 6, 2001 Report Share Posted May 6, 2001 Sorry all that I have not listed in a while. We have been really busy getting Brooklynn ready for her surgery. I have had to get it all together pretty much well myself. It gets to be really stressful when they want to do different things to your child and want to put them under anestesia a hundred times. I finally got it cordinated all together so she can be out once instead of five times. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
