Keep that snowstorm in Colorado- I don't want it here in Missouri. I want to get in a few more weeks of riding before winter sets in :-)

I just saw on the news that it is 17 degrees F in Colorado !! Surely you aren't riding in that kind of weather.

How did Colorado folks get duped into giving their water to Nevada and California? I guess at that time we just came in off the turnip truck.

Every lane is a bike lane
Feel free to send some this way if yuo have any to spare! Of course, it would melt as soon as it got within a squillion miles of this place, but that's OK. We need rain too!

So, I have located an excellent neurosurgeon here in Denver who is quite experienced in this operation. Met with him last week. He took over an hour just to talk with Nora and me, and he is highly recommended by others who have had operations like this.
So, I am scheduled for the TN ( https://www.tna-support.org/ ) operation on November 18 - yes, just 2 weeks away!! It is about a 4-5 hour operation (actual operating time of 3-3.5 hours). I will then go to Intensive Care for one day (standard after this type of op) and then to a ward. Total time in the hospital will be 3 days minimum up to 7. One of the things that happens is that in order to get at the Trigeminal Nerve they must move the nerve which controls your nausea, so I expect vomiting and discomfort for some time afterwards.
There is NO guarantee that this will resolve my problem, although it does in 80-90% of cases.
