I add my prayers to those of others. I have had a number of patients in common with Dr. Allan Friedman at Duke, and rest assured, you are in the best of hands. As I mentioned to you several years ago, I have extensive experience with gamma knife radiosurgery and the Novalis system, while different from the gamma knife is quite as capable in focusing the radiation where it needs to be. Hopefully if your tumor has not changed in grade, and the resection is complete, you won't even need any further treatment with radiation. Interestingly, another member of the brain tumor team at Duke is Dr. Henry Friedman who is a medical oncologist that I have worked together with on many occasions, but as far as I know he is not related to Allan. My prayers are with you for a succesful operation.

Pender United Methodist Church Fairfax, VA will be lifting you in prayers at 11:10 AM tomorrow.
Nowhere did you mention prayer or desire for prayer; and I hope you know this is from a sincere heart;
I know God can do anything: nothing is impossible for God:
He does want you to believe in Him: accept Him into your heart and life: and ask him for strength, courage, and thanks for His everlasting mercy and forgiveness for sins:
Ask Him for healing, and to bless you with seeing your children grow up and seeing their childrens children. I pray for God to touch you and bring you healing and peace.
Agree with me for God's word says "... if two of you shall agree on earth as touching anything that they shall ask, it shall be done for them of my Father which is in heaven." Matthew 18:19
This we ask in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ to the glory of God. Amen!
Prayers for you, MrConfettiMan!
This thread has been a blessing for you, and some of the replys look very encouraging. So come back and tell us how the "awake" test went and of course, for the big birth announcement.
From one survivor to another, you've been a great inspiration to me, Joe. And you will continue to be, for a long, long time!

MrConfettiMan, you have my prayers...along with the prayers of some mighty fine prayer warriors who I've pinged to this thread.
Thank you HC, for that ping!!!
May God bless you and your family as you take this journey..... Good luck.
Prayers offered for a complete healing.
Prayers for victory in your battle.
You are in my prayers starting NOW. God is with you - you know Him, He knows You - and there is no better Wingman than God.
I lift you up to the One who made You: God, keep this God man safe, and let Him feel Your Arms around him...
In Jesus name I pray it.
Thank you for all you have done. God be with you in this latest journey.
I'm very psyched about the awake part.
Pray tell why, Joe? Is there some benefit doing it this way?
BTW your daughter is positively stunning!
You have my prayers and best wishes, Mr[AnythingButPassive]ConfettiMan!
I read about this in a book.....make sure the Doctor's last name isn't Lecter. :o)
Best of luck, Joe.
You know me and a few thousand of your FRiends are praying and pulling for you.
MCM, Prayers are out for all involved. Especially you. Peace and love, George.
Prayers going up!
May God smile on you during this...
