August 15 Stage one will be a day surgery. We'll drive up to Nashville for the day then come home. Stage 1 is the brain MRI and mapping for the positioning tool. Guiding Screws will be inserted in the skull to be used in surgery.
The Stage two surgeries, Stage 2a , right brain is scheduled for Aug 24. The stage 2b, left brain is for Aug 31. I will update from the hospital on those days. The Dr will insert the wires and extensively test during surgery for Dad's reduction of symptoms with each position. After surgery the wires will be in place, but not active until late September when all swelling should be gone.
