Unfortunately I came home in early September when Adam called to let us know he had a brain tumor. I came home and went with him to numerous appointments followed by a successful surgery. He had surgery October 30th that lasted 8 hours. Tony came home for the surgery. The surgeons removed most of it and there is talk about going on to remove the rest. Dr. Mitha, neurosurgeon, prepared us for the worse case scenario but lucky for Adam he was only in the hospital for 2 weeks. He did lose his ability to swallow and his right vocal chords collapsed. He has been practicing his swallowing exercises and is able to eat a blended diet. He sounds like Christian Bale's Batman but his voice is getting stronger. Adam has a horrible cough and I worry about him aspirating when he eats and drinks. He will have another swallow test to see what is happening, hopefully we will learn more in a week or two.
All of the prayers and well wishes truly helped the surgeons perform a successful surgery and with Adam's recovery. Thank you everyone and please continue to pray for him.
