Quartzsite Cruiser Posted September 28, 2023 #76 Share Posted September 28, 2023 @rafinmd Roy, since I doubt I'll be home before you board the Queen Mary 2, I hope you have a wonderful and restorative cruise(s). I also hope your Crystal cruise is all you want it to be. Have a safe trip to NYC tomorrow and a great cruise. Lenda 13 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We should only be there on night, but it could be two, which makes it hard to know how much to take. I'm trying to go light. Lenda, best of luck to you and Steve. In the coming months I'm hopeful to hear news of the regression/reversal of symptoms that the shunt should accomplish. Wish my dearly-departed love had opted for the shunt but, oh well. Can't change history. Edited September 28, 2023 by AV8rix 9 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't change history. Susan, thank you for the good wishes. We are hopeful the shunt will help. After the lumbar puncture, which is the definitive test to see if a shunt will help, there was marked improvement almost immediately. The sad thing was the improvement lasted only about three days. It was enough that the doctor said the shunt was needed. Steve's spine surgeon said last year and this year he needs it. Shunts do have a few things to warch for. I'm sorry your love did not want a shunt. Lenda 8 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everything is in the small carry on except what we need tomorrow morning. I can't believe I got everything we will need for one or two nights for two people in a small hand carry bag. We never leave home this light, but I couldn't see dragging a rolling carry on around the hospital. We have to leave here at 7:45 am and I don't know if I'll have time to get on the Daily before we leave. Prayers that all goes well.
