Greetings to everyone!
Today was another very full day at Anne Arundle Medical Center. Dad is in high spirits - taking everything in faith and stride. We have had a steady stream of friends and family which has helped to pass the time. Amazingly this time of pause for fellowship has been such a gift and we are eternally grateful.
We met with the neurosurgeon (Dr. Sullivan) who recommended that we push the operation on the tumor from Thursday to Wednesday. So for those praying we need maximum prayer coverage starting at 1pm Tuesday. Dr. Sullivan said that the operation will last 2-3 hours. The surgery is expected to remove more than 50% of the tumor and will provide a large enough sample to determine the status of the tumor (malignant or benign). The rest is in God's hands.
We welcome anyone who would like to visit tonight and tomorrow. Visiting hours are 8am-8pm. He will go into surgery at 1pm and will exit sucessfully around 4pm.
Thank you for your prayers, love and support.
Blessings,
Bobby, Elaine, Melissa, Justin, and Rachel
