Hello Everyone,
Cheryl's MRI taken the night before the surgery, remained unchanged from the prior MRI taken the month before. There was no new tumor growth since the previous MRI.
The doctor removed the whole tumor and a big wide margin around the tumor. Cheryl's speech center was located, but it remained outside of the margin area, so it was not damaged. Cheryl did not loose her speech.
The doctor feels that from the initial look of the tumor, that it is the returning GBM, but it has not been confirmed by the pathology report yet.
We have so much to thank God for! The tumor did not grow during the past month; the tumor was not located in the speech center; the doctor was able to remove a large margin around the tumor without damaging the speech center.
I want to thank all of you for praying for Cheryl! As it pleased God to grant us our requests, may He receive all the praise, honor & glory due Him! Let's all sing songs of praise!
