I came across my MRIs from last February when I was cleaning up my gigantic piles of crap today and I thought maybe you'd be interested in seeing a little of the inside of my brain. These are almost a year old and they were before I was a surgical candidate, so assume that everything managed to get worse in the timeframe between February and November. I took the liberty of adding a few notes, just in case you needed help.
Exhibit 1- I'm pretty sure this is brain genesis...
Exhibit 2- why I don't sleep well at night...
Exhibit 3- The mystery of my right sinuses. Every MRI I've had, dating back to 1997, has shown a complete blockage of my right sinuses. I think it's more of my extra large brain. You decide for yourself.
Exhibit 4- Why my left hand sucks.
Exhibit 5-And here's my extra brain, pre-decompression, in all it's long glory (if you look very carefully you can see my central canal dilation (aka pre-syrinx)).
I hope you don't use dial up. Or I should say didn't, because I'm sure if you did, your computer would already have died.
A picture is worth a thousand words

This was awesome!! And I'm so glad you added the WHERE'S MY FACE comment on the first pic! I was wondering if you forgot to share that not only do you have extra brain, but you also happen to have less face!!
Hallie :-)
Katie ~ your pictures totally rock ~ love the extra narration on the pics. It is so weird to have those pics of your head ~ I can't look at someone without wondering what their brain looks like underneath there. Brains rule and they are so pretty ~ true story! Hugs to you ~ Lace
Wow, Katie, you sure did/do have lots extra hanging down there. But I do find it sort of cute--even though I know how very wrong it is--that you have such a snuggly brain. Bless your heart. Or, bless your brain?
Veeeeeerrry interrrrresting...
I love that you can see your ideas!
I especially liked your little, added notes.
