11:20 am: We just got a call in our little personal waiting area from our surgery communicator. GREAT news right now. Mom is in surgery and doing well. They didn’t find any spread of the disease, and they are in the process of removing the tumor. I’m a little trembly as I’ve been pretty nervous (and I had some coffee this morning, which doesn’t help with calming my nerves). Mom’s doing so well. I’m really hopeful. They’ve begun the heart of the surgery!
11:50: Despite the protests of some of our group, I continue to take photos. You can see us as we wait in the gallery.
