We're home from the Dr.

[wvjules]

Things went well. The Dr. said its most likely a benign neural sheath tumor. But it still needs to come out. He needs to consult with a neurosurgeon then they'll go from there. I guess the CT surgeon will get in, then the neurosurgeon will do the tumor removal. It's going to be a major surgery basically cutting her whole side open, but atleast that will (hopefully) be the end of it.

But before we even get that far, they need to send her to a hemotologist to get her anemia under control. When her blood results came back she barely had any iron in her system.
Thank you GBC!!!!!!

Thank you all very much for your PD and prayers.

I think you and your mom need to celebrate before she has her surgery. Perhaps a trip to see Mickey?

Congrats on the great news.
