Today it has been 4 years and two days since I had my decompression surgery for a Chiari I Malformation.
Just as the malformation was "hidden" for 25 years, so are the changes that I have rejoiced in since the surgery; I appeared well before but I am well now. I know that the surgery was not a cure - I will always have the malformation - but I'm grateful that the surgery has, for the most part, alleviated my symptoms.
Today I am grateful for the gift of good health; of a life free from the horrid "bombs" going off in my head, free from numbness, free from dizziness and falls.
Life is good. I embrace the quiet solitude of my celebration and journey on...

I rejoice with you on a very special anniversary. Hooray for healing!
Congrats on your anniversary and your post is very encouraging to me as I am facing decompression surgery to alleviate all my symptoms from Chiari. To hear from someone 'on the other side' gives me hope that I will be able to re-claim my life. ~Lace
