Leaving for California
April 19th, 2003 @ 7:30 PM in Medical ReportsMe are going to leave for California at 6 in the morning tomorrow. It will take about 12 hours to reach San Francisco, California. For those who don’t know, I’m going there to have my second Deep Brain Stimulation surgery at UCSF.
The surgery will be held on April 22, but I have a few appointments there the day before. I will be hospitalized only for 2 days, though. I will be in the hospital on 22 and 23, so if you wish to send me a “get well” message and/or a birthday wish, please do so via here [link removed]. Otherwise, you can just leave comments here.
For the rest of my stay in California, I will be staying at an Inn nearby the hospital with my parents, and I don’t think I would be able to access the Internet.
I will be back by May 3 at most. See ya all! And Happy Easter! ![]()
