Fay was to have surgery at 4:00 this afternoon, At 4:30 the doctor came into her room and told her that he was cancelling the surgery. Talk about a day filled with up and downs. The neurologists who were called in to consult, (neurology feels there is spinal involvement. But Dr. Bull does not really believe that, he feels the tumor is resting in an incostal nerve, and that is what is causing the pain.) feel that if the surgery goes Fay will loose the baby. Tumors of this size can be (doesn't mean it will be) very vascular. The blood lose would cause Fay to abort the baby. Neurology feels that Anesthesia can work with Fay with different forms of blocks that will allow her to manage her pain until she can give birth. This can present a problem too, how long do you wait? The doctor and Fay have agreed to give it two weeks. Then we might be back here again. The best senario is that the pain is managed and Fay can move on for a while. If not, we come do it all over again!
