I am sitting in my office, working on an exam I will give two days before my surgery. I'll get it graded, then pass my class over to Dr. D. I'm getting all my course materials ready so he knows what to cover. I am not worried about that, but he and I both take an interest in our students' learning so it is hard to let go, even for a day. I trust him the most with my students.
Two weeks. So much to put in place in my plan for the worst and hope for the best. I think I'll have a to do list that is constantly evolving. Glad my favorite way to do lists is on the computer. I can mark out, annotate, delete, add as things happen....constantly evolving.
Focus and preparation. That has to be my mantra these next 14 days. Do what I can to the best of my ability. I have hope and faith.
Hi there! I've just found your blog - I have a pituitary tumour too, I've been looking for blogs written by people with similar conditions! Just wanted to say, good luck for your surgery (I guess it's in a couple of days!). I had surgery on my pituitary in April and it really wasn't that bad! I know how scary it is beforehand though, I hope you're keeping yourself busy :)

Thank you so much for your comment. Even though you are half my age and across the pond, it meant a lot to me for you to find me. You are the first I have heard with a similar condition (I haven't been told what special things that Siddy has been doing to me all these years). I look forward to reading more of your blog and sharing more of mine.
