Here's the latest on Allison.....As many of you know she had a biopsy on June 17th at Riley's Childrens Hospital. It was a four hour procedure (including the CT scan). She did great during the procedure and we were kept in the loop by the wonderful staff at Riley's. The original info the doctor has given us is that the tumor is benign. Which is totally awesome! However, the continued headaches is something that is somewhat suspicious and puzzeling. The neurologist isn't totally convinced that the tumor is causing the headaches. The oncologist is supposed be contacting us any day now on what the next step will be as far as attacking the tumor. Even with it being benign, there is still the possiblilty of it causing issues with the ventricals that house the cereberal spinal fluid.
So we wait some more and continue to pray that God will provide a healing and strength for her as she continues on with life. This has been a real learning experience for us as a family. Patience and trust is definitely something that I feel God is teaching us. I am so proud of Allison on her attitude and strength. She is a great kid, and I'm not just saying that because she's my little girl.
Thanks for all the kind words, encouragement and prayers.
Trent
