Ryan had his brain surgery today. We got to Hopkins at 5:45 this morning, and they just finished closing him about an hour ago. Long day.
His surgeon seemed happy with the surgery - said he was able to get ~90% of the tumor, and that they should be able to get the rest with radiation.
I haven't seen him yet, but hopefully will soon. He's in the Neuro Critical Care Unit for tonight - if all goes smoothly he should be transferred out tomorrow, and be home by Thursday.
Thank you everyone for your thoughts and prayers. We really appreciate it.
Our cantankerous Ryan ... I love it!
ReplyDeleteEmily, I'm so glad you're fighting so hard for GI specialists to pay attention to one of Ryan's immediate problems. Thank God you're there and so proactive. I would want someone like you if I ever needed a fearsome warrior. And Ryan ... please keep fighting, too. You're our hero.
Love, Aunt Laurie
P.S. I sent a funny comic in an email. I hope you laugh. But I hope it doesn't hurt.
