Update from Gail regarding Dan's Surgery

[Guest guest]

Dan had his surgery yesterday (early in the morning). He had an open brain

surgery to do remove the tumors in his brain and to do biopsies on the

tumors. They were not able to get all at least one of the tumors. One of

them was in a location that was too dangerous to remove all of it, so they

removed as much of it that they could. They don't have the results from any

of the biopsies yet.

Dan was moved from recovery to ICU late yesterday afternoon and is in stable

condition. Today He is still in ICU and is in a lot of pain.

Gail has not had very much sleep and feels as though a truck/train has hit

her. She really could use some sleep and is hoping that if Dan is better

tonight that she will be able to get a hotel room tonight to get some sleep

instead of staying all night at the hospital with Dan in the ICU (which I

think we can all imagine is not great for her health).

For all of you that believe in prayer, she continues to ask for pray for Dan

and her family as they continue to go through this struggle and I ask for

prayers for Gail as she has been a trooper through this, always strong for

her family. But I can't imagine how hard this has been for her both

emotionally and physically.

Hugs to all, Alli
