"brain tumors suck" were the first words my mom uttered as they rolled her onto the elevator. She is in a lot of pain 15 out of 10! The medicine is causing some nausia and she is very uncomfortable. Thankfully we are friends with a few nurses, Ashley gave us the name of an anti nausia medicine and they just gave it to her, once thqtbgets into her system she can have some more morphine. She's also had some difficulty breathing through her mouth as her nose is packed with tubes. She gasped for breath a few times and scared us all. The original plan was to keep her for just one night but they may need to keep her longer. She's nervous to be alone so we've been hanging out in her room since they let us in. Grandma and I made a quick run to the border(taco bell of course). We plan to stay until they make her sleep (only to wake her up every 30 minutes). Please keep praying, it's really hard to watch your mom in this much pain. God is good and he's got us through this far and we know he will get usbthrough the rest!

The surgeon just gave us the report. The surgery went well and he's confident he got almost if not all of the tumor out. It was soft like we prayed for and he's confident it's benign. He scrapped until the surface was hard which typically indicates it's the pituitary gland, if it is some tumor that means it's fiberous and may have to be treated with radiation. At her 6 week check up they will do an MRI and see what is going on at that point. Thank you for all of your prayers! God has indeed been good! At this point she is in recovery and depending on how long it takes for the anisthesia to wear off we will get to see her in the next 1 to 2 hours.
