      Just wanted to update, after much discussion by 3 different docs. they have all agreed to the Gamma Knife!  My Dad is crying tears of relief that with so many diffrent opnions all have decided that this is a go.  Supposed to happen next week!  I am so glad I pushed Mom to ask about it!  Its going to happen at Hoag in Newport Beach.

      🙂
