The day is finally here. Mark is getting his pre-op MRI now (8:20am). He is in good spirits this morning. We have spent some time praying and reading and looking through encouraging cards, emails and texts from many of you. Mark knows he is loved. We feel your support and love for our family. Keep the prayers coming! We are hopeful for a successful day.

12:30 Mark's surgeon gave us the report following surgery. Good news: at first glance there is no evidence of "live" tumor in the mass that he removed (per pathologist). Mark's surgeon was very encouraged by this! We will get a final pathology report in about a week or two. They will do a repeat MRI within the next week or so. Mark is still in recovery. We are anxious to see him and talk with him about this good news. Thanks for your prayers!
3:15pm: Mark is resting in ICU. His vital signs are stable, he's had some orange jello and water with his medications. He is tired and complains of a headache--all to be expected after this surgery. Continue to pray for quick healing and recovery. Thank you!

SO glad to hear the encouraging news after the surgery. I'm praying for NO HEADACHES! And for God's speedy healing as well as strength and comfort for you, Mark. And how wonderful to have a baby in your house! Our grandson is 10 months now and we are enjoying him so much. What a blessing to have a grandson of your own, and in your very house! Blessings to you all.
Love, Gina Bochsler
