After a 4 hour surgery, she is now backbin the ICU. They were able to remove about 95% of the tumor. There was a "finger" that was too close to the area of her brain that controls the motor functions of her left leg. So, instead of risking her ability to walk, they left some small pieces in.
She is in the ICU, currently sedated due to the fact that she has some nausea and pain from the anesthesia and surgery. However, her initial motor skills tests and cognitive tests were all good!!!
Once the morphine wears off, they likely do some more tests, and then onto the 2nd wait ...
Thanks for the update! Glad to hear she's through with the surgery and all is reasonably well. Prayers for the long week of waiting.
