I just got a call from my daughter who is with her husband at the UW Madison Hospital. He is in intensive care awaiting surgery Tuesday for a golf ball size tumor on his brain stem. They found it when they did an MRI on him at the VA hospital and sent him to Madison immediately. The doctord told my daughter he has a 50-50 chance of surviving the surgery but without it he will die. There is a fluid sac around the tumor which they say is spinal fluid and they have to drain it before the surgery. They don't know how much of the tumor is wrapped around the brain stem till they get inside. My daughter and he have a son in school and he and his dad are very close. I am not able to do anything but send prayers and ask you all if you would please do the same. Thanks all, good luck and God Bless. Norm
