Out of Surgery #1

Da Goddess @ 20:03

The young lady with the brain tumor is out of surgery and doing well. The tumor was located near the back of her head and was, according to the doctor, removed sort of like picking a cherry (albeit, a LARGE cherry) from a tree. However, it was an aggressive mass, one of the most aggressive they’ve seen. Heidi’s in a medically induced coma to allow her brain to recover from the surgery. I’m sure radiation and chemo will follow. And from the sound of it, there will be many heads shaved in solidarity.

One surgery down this week. Next to come: my dad.

  1. Thanks for the update, hopefully the recovery will be uncomplicated and the ongoing treatment will deal with the remaining risks.

    Prayers continue with your Dad added.
