We just talked to the surgeon. They believe they removed at least 75% of the tumor and the preliminary pathology report said the tumor is benign. We will not confirm the pathology for a few days. We knew 100% of the tumor could not be removed, so this is the best possible outcome we could have asked for. He is a fighter and the prayers are working.
Please continue to pray. He is still in critical condition and will be on a breathing machine for awhile, but our little guy made it through.
Beth,
ReplyDeleteI am glad to hear that your news was positive thus far. I have been praying all day and will continue for some time to come. Please know that we are thinking of you and can jump in to help in any way if you need it.
Thinking of Nathan, you and Mike, and your whole family...
Beth -
ReplyDeleteLissa shared the news on Nathan. We will keep you, Mike and Nathan in our thoughts and prayers daily. I am so sorry that Nathan is having to go through this right now. He sounds like a tough little fighter.
