 My Brain Tumor ruptured back in 2014 and really Jacked me up for a long while and I really never got back to 100% as far as my balance was concerned :-\  I adapted and got by after some Vestibular Therapy, then I lost my Left Eye and that was a challenge, but once again I adapted and got by. I get an MRI of the Brain once a year and so far the Tumor has remained stable but I have noticed my balance is off again like it was in the beginning ??? I started Vestibular Therapy again and it has been brutal. They say I will probably never be 100% again but I have to at least try. The exercises at the facility are intense and when I leave it just puts me in a weird mood but at least I am alive and I can still drive :) I've seen a Neurosurgeon since 2014 and he finally referred me to a Neurologist for an evaluation and he referred me to the Top Specialist in Ca. so I am waiting to see him in August. In the meantime I am planning more time on The Cyclops and at least one more trip to Bishop/Mammoth as long as my kneed holds up (F*CK)

Rant over, hope everyone has a safe and fun 4th of July weekend !!!

Golly, you've been through it Tim. I'm glad you can stay positive through all that. Here's to many more Cyclops trips!
