Preparing for Surgery

February 22, 2012

Hi Everyone,

This is a message directly from Jessica. 

Sam has to type for me because I am lying in a hospital bed at Johns Hopkins Medical Center preparing for my operation this afternoon starting around 12-1pm. The procedure will last around 4 hours.

Two weeks of intense non-stop cluster headaches landed me in the ER at AAMC where we discovered that I have a large tumor in my right frontal lobe.

I feel blessed to have a world renowned brain surgeon, Dr. Jon Weingart, helping me go through this experience. It's amazing that I live so close to the #1 neurosurgical facility in the county.

I'm emailing you this because I would be so grateful to have your healing prayers and positive thoughts in my corner as I go through this unique journey and recovery.

Thank you, thank you, thank you, your love and support means the world to me.

Love,

Jessica

Post-Op Update

February 24, 2012

Hello All,

Today showed great progress once again as Jessica was able to get up and go down to Physical Therapy where she did leg exercises, took a walk, went up and down a flight of 12 stairs & then rode on a resistance machine for about 12 minutes. She has been cleared to eat and has had broth, avocado & some probiotics. The final piece of news for tonight.....

We are going home TOMORROW!!

Pray for a good nights rest for both of us and that every day moving forward will continue to build towards full recovery and her return to optimum health.....

May all of your beautiful prayers come back to bless you as powerfully as they have been blessing us through this experience....

All our love,

Sam & Jess
