Doctors, Specialists, Besties

I have many wonderful friends in my life whom are supportive and loving.  i am thankful for everyone of them. I hope and pray that one day my daughters will consider each other their Besties.  I had to share this from Wednesday....


Early this morning I dropped my daughters off with my mom and headed to the children's hospital.  My son already had to have ear surgery earlier this summer and now it looked like he would need surgery on another problem he had. I sat in the doctors room nervously waiting and there is my bestie texting me supportive Texts. Then the doctor came in and I knew right off the bat this was not going to go well....don't judge a book by the cover but I did and I was right!!!!! He looked maybe 22 years old, hair not combed......sticking up, wrinkled clothes, and clueless.  He examined my son and against my hopes and prayers he came to the same conclusion that I already in my gut knew, there was a problem larger then I had actually realized.  He left......thank goodness....and went to get a surgeon.  

We waited 45 minutes and I was stressed........so along came more funny loving texts from bestie.  The surgeon came in who I LOVED examined my son and said everything was fine, not normal, but fine and would not recommend surgery that what the previous doctor found was incorrect he was plain and simply wrong. He said he is a surgeon thats how he makes his money and would not recommend surgery.  Thank goodness for answered prayers.  

I am thankful for friends and people that make hard times easier here are a few of Besties random texts:
Good morning bestie. I'm getting up so I can go get my children.  Let me know what the doctor says.
By the way, even though I'm on thanksgiving break, you can text me anytime.  I won't put limits on our friendship.  you can text me in the middle of the night  and you can text me early in the morning and you can text me late At night.  No time is an in convience time for my bestie.
And I'll wait and text you after 10am on the weekends because that is what my bestie wants.
I'll always wait for you forever.


Then I went to Walmart because thy are matching Black Friday ads......it really didn't feel the same though without five thousand people here!

I guess we decided to take the week off from homeschooling!

Pilocytic Astrocytoma WHO Grade 1

This is the name of the tumor Brad has....I just googled it and it is typically something children get.  This is how the appointment went....... The doctor walked in the room with a smile and said, "You know don't you?" "You called and found out the results?"  I told him I didn't and his smile got bigger :)  He still didn't tell us he did a few coordination tests on Brad and sat down and said, "You have a Pilocytic Astrocytoma WHO Grade 1 tumor.....and if you have a brain tumor this is the type of tumor you want to have!" YA!!!! Here are the details:  -Brad has had this tumor for a long time, something happened that weekend he had the bad headaches that caused the tumor to bleed.....that's why no one was sure if it was a brain bleed or tumor. -The pathologist at the hospital could not determine what it was so it was sent off to Cleveland clinic for another set of eyes. -The brain bleed is what was causing the headache and pain not...

Monday and Tuesday ......went to work late, came home, did not eat dinner, went to bed.   Cried about how bad his head hurt and thought it might explode.   He kept teasing saying he had a tumor and we were all laughing at him about being a big baby.....everyone gets headaches and don't have tumors. Wednesday April 2 - Went to work and called me at noon saying he couldn't work anymore and came home.   I told him he...
