Ladies, I'm here at the hospital in the Neuro ICU waiting room. Chris is out of surgery and doing very well. He's moving his hands, arms and legs. The surgeon said the the surgery went very, very well and Chris should experience relief from the removal of the tumor. We're all breathing again.
Thanks be to God!!!
I'm so very grateful for all your prayers, and I'll update again when I can.

I just saw this and am praying for your brother tonight. I will offer my Rosary for all of your intentions for him, especially that John Paul II would intercede and grant a miracle of healing.

Just wanted to drop by and thank you all again for your prayers. I'm home now. Nursing resumed immediately after I walked in the door ! We were both so relieved! The kids did very well and by all accounts had a great few days with their daddy!
Chris was discharged from the hospital on Saturday morning and is recovering at home very well. He's been up and walking around the gardens already! After healing from this surgery he will resume chemo in a few weeks.
 to all of you! You were such a tremendous support to me during some very long hours and days of waiting and I can't thank you enough!
