Update - preliminary tests that can be done locally are finished. After 3 other opinions,my son will be having an "awake" craniotomy on April 14th in San Francisco. The wait is very hard, but we will get thru it. He has been told that the tumor is very "slow growing", and has probably been there for a long time.

I can't begin to put into words the appreciation I feel for your support & prayers. We all really feel their presence, and know they are giving us our strength.

Please continue to pray for Adam, his wife & children, and the rest of us on this journey.

God bless you all….

Thank you for posting this update. Waiting is indeed very difficult. Take every day, every moment and live them fully. In an odd way, this is a gift in that it's a dramatic wake-up call to embrace family, share love and emotions (both happy and sad emotions), leave nothing unsaid, and to see everything around you with new eyes.

I will continue to keep you all in my prayers.

Prayers ascending for Adam and the entire family. May God give you peace of mind too .... waiting is the hardest part .... be strong, for He is in control.

Prayers for your son. It must be very nerve wracking waiting and my heart is with him. If it is slow growing am I correct in assuming it is benign?

Prayers continuing for your son!

Thank you all SO much for your support & prayers. I'm just a very frightened mother, and am looking for any personal experience anyone has had. My son has been getting very thorough explanations of what he has, and what they will do. (He is a physician himself). He is trying to protect his wife, children, and parents from too much fear. He will be seeing a specialist in SanFrancisco in a week for a consultation, and will need an "awake craniotomy". I've seen one performed on the Discovery channel and don't want to think about it…..

TexasMom - Houston is where he was advised to go as his 2nd option. Thanks!

Thank you all again for your support…..

I throw my vote in for Houston too.......MD Anderson Cancer Center. If I am ever diagnosed any ANY kind of cancer........there is no doubt in my mind............that is where I would go for treatment!!
