Update on Dad - After The Surgery

My step-dad had his brain tumor removed Wednesday. The surgery itself went very well. We did get bad news though. The tumor was a very aggressive type of cancer which will more than likely come back. Ed has almost 100% decided he will fight it. But that is later this month before he makes his final decision. For now, he is healing well from the surgery. All the prayers said for him lifted him up and God has taken care of him. He is in good spirits and seems hopeful. And so are we, his family and friends. More details later.

Surgery for Dad

Wednesday morning, Dec 3, at about 7:00am my dad will undergo surgery to remove the tumor from his left temple. The decided to forgo the biopsy of the mass. At this time, no other foreign bodies or masses found in other parts of the body, that is a good thing. The doctors tell us this will affect his speech and memory. Please pray for his doctors, nurses and other caregivers, and for his full recovery. I am going to spend the night with him and my mom.

I hope to give you a good report soon.
