Uhm... This isn't good.

Especially when she tried to tell me what to do and I still couldn't do it. I just didn't understand.

@DaddyEvil Glad you have an appointment soon

@wolfgirl569 Thanks. Me, too.

Thank you. I appreciate that.

Thank you. I'm sure everything will be fine.

@DaddyEvil Hope so!! Have you been to your apt. yet?

@kareng I see the neurologist on the 24th of this month.

Than you. Unfortunately, the neurlogist has other peope with worse problems than I'm having. I have to wait my turn.

@DaddyEvil - I usually have no problems, but a few days ago I did not arrive to answer. It is rue that when you are outside in the sun you see nothing at all. May be I missed the correct button to push.

@LadyDuck Yes, that could be what happened.

I'm glad Pretty was available to answer the phone for me.

@lovebuglena If removing some of the fluid works, then yes, I'll get the surgery. If it doesn't help, then there's nothing they can do to help me.

Hydrocephalus is a problem where the cerebrospinal fluid starts building up inside someone's head, putting pressure on the brain, causing different types of problems. A doctor will need to drain off some of the fluid while I'm in the hospital. If that relieves some of the pressure, then the neurologist will do surgery to install a shunt in my skull to drain off more of the fluid into my abdomen. The body will reabsorb the excess fluid.

@DaddyEvil Wow! Does that mean you’ll need to do the surgery?

@Aquitaine24 I'm making him an honourary Canadian.

Is it that or molasses?

Yes, ma'am... Should I put you down for a few gallons?

@DaddyEvil ........Try to keep busy.

Pretty keeps telling me to relax and the 24th will get here soon enough.

@DaddyEvil Oh dear DE I am so very sorry to read this.

@DaddyEvil

@RebeccasFarm Thank you. Hopefully, after the neurologist sees me on the 24th I'll be doing better.

I hope the lump on your head is just an oddity of your birth and isn't something wrong.

You're right, it isn't.

Pretty keeps telling me that the hospital visit next week should fix everything that is wrong. I hope she's right.

@rakski Thank you.

@DaddyEvil I will pray for that too That the visit will give you answers

Sometimes it's worse than other times. Thank you.

I'll be in the hospital for 5 days while the neurologist does a spinal tap on me to remove some of the spinal fluid and see if that relieves pressure in my brain the will let me think clearly again. Don't worry, I'm sure everything will be okay again after I get released from the hospital.

@DaddyEvil Is this a regular thing?

@DaddyEvil hope the procedure goes smoothly and you feel better.

I'm trying... I'm sure everything will be fine.

Thank you. Sometimes it feels like the days are going really quickly.

Thank you. That's what Pretty keeps telling me, too.

I agree. I hate hospitals and surgery.

Thank you. And yes, you're right.

Phones are normally very easy for me. I spent almost 20 years teaching older adults how to work smartphones. That was my job when I still worked at Walmart. I was the phone salesman.
