Thank you everyone for caring about me. I am much better now. There is a funny story. The day after my surgery there was a rumor at school that I had busted open my stiches and I was bleeding all over and had to go life flight back to the hospital. All my classmates were freaked out. I do tend to have accidents so it sounds like me, but it all wasn't true.

I had to have a piece of the artery removed from my head and so they wouldn't let me just go home. I have never been on a helicopter and the stiches were on the inside and my forehead was closed up with strong tape.

I'm much better now. I still can't feel the top of my head and I have to wear hats for a year. My eyebrows are crooked and I don't mind. I got bangs now. I had what is called an AVM. It can happen anywhere in your body but mine was in my head. The artery grows weird and can rupture and you can have a stroke. It's gone now and I hope it doesn't come back.

Also if you ever have to have an MRI make sure to go to the bathroom first. The nurses don't like to stop.

Thank you again. SisterGldnHair.

Al would be proud of you sistergldnhair. ;)

Get well soon!

I recently broke my ankle (in two places) test-piloting my latest project! Ow!
My wife had 13 brain surgeries way back when she was in grade-school, and she's turned out just fine!

We know what it's like to go through some of these things.

Just get better!

Great to hear you're doing well- take care!

SGH,
I know im a little late, but i hope your recovery stays steady and fast coming!! My wife and i have a 3y/o (in 2 months) son and a near 1y/o (in 1 month) daughter and we could never imagine anything happening to them so drastically as it has you. We feel terrible that you have to go through this kind of horrendously invasive procedure. you are in our prayers!

Get even better soon!!!

I've been in the hospital more times than I care to remember and I know it's no fun! Wishing you a speedy recovery sistergldnhair! You'll be back to making carboard flip-flops in no time!

Good luck on your speedy recovery! Hopefully the doctors did like I said and added more creative ideas into your head while you were out! ;)
Good to hear that you are healing up nicely!!

glad you feel better!your instructables are great!

Get well soon! Stay strong and listen to your doctors; it will speed your recovery!

I'm glad you're feeling better. I hope it never comes back.

I think my best friend had that, too... they had to close off one of the arteries in her brain after discovering a small aneurysm (fortunately it hadn't damaged anything yet).


I hear you about using the bathroom before the MRI. I went first, but something they gave me made me have to go, and it was so uncomfortable trying not to squirm in the MRI when I had to pee! I had the nurse stop. Oh, well.

I hadn't heard of you until just now when I read about your plight. So get well soon from a new friend. :-)

Is that a new costume for Robot?

I was in the hospital with severe bronchitis when I was younger. Being in the hospital is no fun at all. But I did learn a lesson: always treat any sickness you have. Here is my get well card for her. also add my signature to your card:

I am so sorry you had to have that surgery. I hated having my ear surgery when I was a toddler.... of course, if you are a part of the instructables family, you are as strong as an ox and I know you will make an amazing recovery! GET WELL SOON!

Your Believer,

Get well soon! You are a brave and strong girl. ;)
