Thought I should post again to say that my friend that I wrote about earlier finally had a chance to see her Dr. and he felt that the radiologist possibly mis-read her MRI. When a person has a fat graft, or fat poked into your head, it would tend to look like a tumor on an MRI because a tumor appears as fatty tissue. Over time the fat from the graft will disperse but after only 6 months it can be tricky. Even after one year they have to look carefully to see whats what. So, that is good news for her. 
Things here are good and I’m off my pitty pot for now. I’m excited for the holidays and for having more time with Chris and the kids while they’re all off from the daily busyness. Merry Christmas friends!

Hi…I’m sort of new to the AN website and read one of your entries and noticed that Dr. Shelton was your surgeon. I live in upstate N.Y. and had surgery for AN near here but I did a phone interview with Dr. Shelton and I LIKED HIM so much! I was ready to travel to Utah to have him be my surgeon! But realizing that wouldn’t really work for us,I talked with him on the phone and his imput helped me decide what surgery and other issues I hadn’t known about. He was so patient and kind. I did actually ask him if he would fly out here!!(he laughed and said no)I intend to write him a thank you note soon. Anyway, just wanted to say hi and share that with you. Take care–michelle
