Surgery Date

Well as you have probably figured out we've decided to go with Cincinnati for my medical needs. As scary as it is, we know that brain surgery (Translab approach) is the best solution for me. We received the surgery date of Feb. 12 (delivered to us on my birthday, which changed the mood for a few minutes but you know)...I'm at peace with this. God knows what He's doing and I trust Him. The way this whole thing has played out thus far, the people that have reached out to us and the knowledge that has been handed to us to make a firm, comfortable decision doesn't JUST HAPPEN!! We are so blessed and grateful for all that this tumor is not so let's just get it out and proceed on with recovery and life. God still has a lot planned for me so I'll take the tools and guidance that He gives me to get through this. I want to thank everyone that has prayed, called, emailed, cooked etc. b/c without your support, I wouldn't be able to be this confident and at peace. I am forever grateful!!! We'll keep in touch as more progresses but until then stay warm, healthy and God Bless!
