Bruce u Posted January 20, 2010 Share Posted January 20, 2010 This is what her husband just told me: Marisa had a Brain Operation today (About 5 an a half hours) And she comes out of it smiling like a baby with shining blue eyes. Could not believe it..No bruises, bumps... everythings working fine some 30 minutes later... Am still dumbfounded. The neuro surgeon told me going in that he felt it was NOT the steroids that caused all this but it WAS the enlargement of her cancerous mass in the right Pectoral region which affected her most. Right now they've put her back to 6mgs of steroids which is what she was on just before I took her home. I'm sure everyone will keep Marisa in our thoughts and prayers.

lilyjohn Posted January 24, 2010 Share Posted January 24, 2010 Thank you Bruce. I had a note from her about a week and a half ago but nothing more because I have been in and out of touch while traveling. It is good to hear she is doing so well. I expect to hear from her as soon as she is able to talk on the phone again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bruce u Posted January 27, 2010 Author Share Posted January 27, 2010 Marisa is still improving. Her husband is taking her for walks in her wheelchair and she is doing physiotherapy to regain her strength. She is meeting with a very well known radiologist this week to get a plan in place.
