Granddaughter having brain surgery..

[Armistead]

They found a spot on her brain some months ago, did a biopsy, thankfully not cancer. However, last MRI shows the spot has grown and must be removed. We hope she does well, they say better to get it now why she is young, but it's obvious serious surgery.

I took this pic when she had biopsy, brave lil girl. She is a poster model for Carhart, mostly upset about losing her hair. They did take her into the childrens cancer ward and she met a girl with no hair. She is so happy to be donating her hair now.

That's some tough news Armistead. I hope she will be all right.

I will keep her, you and your family in my thoughts and prayers.

Stay strong.

I hope all goes well for your granddaughter. It sounds like they've caught whatever the spot is early enough to be able to do some good. Try to be a brave Granpa so she can continue to be a brave little girl. My best hopes go out to you...

I feel the same way. :-? Armistead, she's a brave girl, she will come through this.

[Tribesman]

Damn, thats bad news.

I spent a good part of the day with her. I got to watch a video clip of her last interview for some contest she was in. Her grandma, {my mother} passed about 20 months ago. They were very close. During the interview she stated when she gets scared grandma visits her at night, hugs her and tells her she will be OK. One part blew my mind, she held her hands up and said "Grandma is so beautiful now."

Prayers from me for her quick and successful recovery, the surgical teams skills to be exemplary, and rest of the family to be able to cope. This is a tough one, wish you all the best of luck. :salute:

[magic452]

Bad news indeed but with a lot of family support she should be fine but still a big ordeal for someone so young. Best of luck and prayers for her and all the family.

Most definitely :sunny:

[Armistead]

Set for Tuesday next week. I think everything should go well.

[u crank]

All the best Armistead. Keep that positive attitude.

[August]

I hope she makes a full recovery.

[Armistead]

Doc feels she will do well. Hopefully two small holes and it's in a good spot. Goes as planned, they expect she will suffer no loss of function. If so, with a young brain it should repair in time....

[Sailor Steve]

That's good to hear. I hope it turns out that way.

[frau kaleun]

She's adorable and you must be so proud of her. I'll keep you all in my thoughts, keep us posted on how things go.

[Mork_417]

Hate to hear the news man, but she seems like a very strong kid. Our thoughts are with her and family.

[eddie]

I feel so sorry for her and your family. Wish her all the best!
