Gramma had surgery on Wednesday afternoon. She came through as well as can be expected. They could not remove all of the tumor, it would have damaged her brain far too much. The doctor has told her now that this is not curable. With Chemo and Radiation, they can control the tumor. The average life expectancy with this type of tumor is about a year. Some people go much longer, others are much shorter, but average is a year.
I spoke to her briefly today, but she couldn’t hear me on the phone.
T and I’ve already decided, if Gram makes it to December, and the baby and I are cleared to travel, we are going to spend Christmas in PA. I want Gramma to be part of Baby’s first christmas, if we can do it.
Other than that, I’m just dealing as best I can.
