So our world has been rocked. We were at Disney World....
we got the news that Iva had been taken to the ER and she had a brain tumor. The next day she underwent a 6 hour surgery to remove the tumor. It is cancer. Life isn't fair. She's not even 33 yet. But, then cancer doesn't pay attention to age, or being fair.
She's been in the hospital and the CCU for a week. Moved to a regular room today! Thank goodness! :) She seems to be hanging in there and doing okay. She is talking and has all of her memory, which doctors weren't sure she would.
The cancer is a grade 4 tumor of the brain. It's the worst kind of tumor to have... there is no cure, but we can try the treatments. Hopefully they will get rid of this and we can beat it. This type of cancer is aggressive and advanced and grows quickly.
Prayers for Iva would be appreciated.
