It's pretty neat that you thought ahead by taking both before and after pictures. We took a couple of pix of my incision when my bandages came off, but that was it. Now I kinda wish that I'd taken before & afters. Thanks for sharing your experience, the pix are great btw! Heather :) *refractory seizure surgery on left temporal lobe 03/06*

You look great afterwards! You will be back to classes in no time! I had my tumor out- yikes- 5 years ago now and my face was all swollen and crap and had soap on it-I'm having it re-cut in t-minus 5 days though for seizure surgery and more tumor resection and this time I have a video camera- I think you just inspired me to have my family catch me on camera - if the staff doesn't freak out- I've also been trying to catch one of me seizure on tape- just in case I never have one again(fingers crossed) Hope you are feeling well and that the 'monster' is gone forever!
