I didn't have a choice. I was in the ER the night before Thanksgiving and a guy I've never met before says hi, I'm going to cut open your head. If I don't you may be ok, or you may be completely F'd up. It's your call. Um, ok.
My surgery was kind of straightforward as brain surgery goes. It's kind of the first thing they let Neuro students do. (Although that may be for reasons having more to do with the typical patient pool.) Can I ask what you were facing?
