It is awesome how he is struggling to figure out the vernacular terms to explain it to a non-neurosurgeon audience.

Wow you guys are the real heros in this world!

This is a very horrible condition and anyone who has to go through this I feel for. I went through it in May 2010. We must be grateful to the amazing doctors who perform this surgery. For those who are going through this I blogged through my rehab and recovery from my surgery.

I always thank all my friends and family, all the hospital staff at the Manor hospital in oxford and the full surgery team. Not forgetting all the physios who helped me recover.

@TheIntelexual its not my place to speculate on whether or not god exists, but who gives you the right to trample over anyone else's beliefs? If you do not believe in God, then I respect your freedom to believe so, but if you start condemning another's beliefs you are just as bad as a proselytizing Christian crusader

@TheIntelexual hahaha exactly, I'm sure the neurosurgeon who removed the tumor wouldn't have minded a shoutout after his 15 years of school and years of practice, but the thanks goes to God? powermax57 correction => May the doctor watch over you too.

That thing was the size of my head

@powermax57

Shouldn't you be thanking the surgeon and surgical team? God didn't really have much to do with it (in fact, under your superstition, "He" is the one that gave it to you in the first place, right?)
