Thanks you so much! We are beginning the surgery now, and your words have brought us all great comfort. I will keep updating as info comes in... Your prayers mean so much to us, thank you for your kindness.
AM AWAKE AND PRAYING AGAIN . . . OFF AND ON NOW, THROUGH THE DAY.
THANKS TONS FOR YOUR KIND WORDS AND FOR KEEPING US POSTED.
Am blessed and humbled my poor words brought comfort.
PRAISE GOD FOR HIS FAITHFULNESS.
As I went back to bed, I realized I’d left a little bit out last post . . .
Have prayed and felt would be at least partially true that somehow, by God’s Grace, Nikki would find . . . as traumatic as it is . . . the whole experience quite interesting and that maybe the interesting would help relieve the traumatic aspect.
BTW, looking at my teacher’s text book . . . my impression from what little you shared in the OP is that they are dealing with an area roughly above her left ear?
Did they say what size the thing is? They must be concerned about her speaking center. Probably the hearing and seeing of words centers would not be involved??
Did they say how much of the motor area was implicated, at risk?
And is she left or right handed?
Am praying that whatever is left of the thing after all our prayers will be encapsulated and easily excised, harmlessly.
Am praying it will take significantly less than 8 hours.
BLESSED BE THE NAME OF THE LORD.
BLESSED BE THE WORD OF THE LORD.
BLESSED BE THE WHOLENESS AND HEALING OF THE LORD.
BLESSED BE THE ANOINTED SURGEON’S HANDS OF THE LORD.
BLESSED BE THE GOD OF ABRAHAM, ISAAC AND JACOB.
THX THX for the update.
GENTLE HUGS, VIGOROUS PRAYERS.
