From the moment I was told at the emergency room, I needed brain surgery until post op. The ten days most intense of my life to date. A rollercoaster of emotions. Fear, confusion, sadness, and grief took over my body and my mind. I was terrified I would never be able to move my left arm and leg with strength again. I stared out the hospital window thinking of all the things I still wanted to do and experience. When I was told I had to undergo brain surgery, all I could think about was the negatives and the scary things that could happen, but my family and friends constantly reminded me and helped me to live and enjoy the moment.
