It is so scary to be having brain surgery, much less being told you must have it again! When they first found the cyst about 2 weeks before the 1st surgery, it was about the size of a pack of table sugar. By the time they did the surgery it was the size of a lime! That is 1/4th the size of your brain cavity. You don't have that kind of room up there. Once the damage is done, it doesn't fill back out like a sponge. There is a permanent dent!
We had no idea how much time we had before the next surgery was going to be neccessary. It could grow slowly or fast. But, he was not having the same symptoms as before, so that was a plus. It was just a waiting game!
