Steady as she goes...
Body images all clear. Isolated in brain. That is good news.
Big day tomorrow. Surgery is slated 4 1/2 hours. 7:30 AM EST.
Calibrate your watches timers bells and whistles for the Rockman.
Our surgeon is: Mario Zuccorello our of Mayfield Clinic and University of Cincinnati: Everyone says is the best with amazing staff to hold us all up. We are blessed. Did you know that Mario is Rocco's confirmation name??? Ha Ha....bet you didn't.
Removal of the tumor closest to the skull will take pressure off his brain. We do not yet know how long Rocco be in the hospital or in ICU. I will stay in the room with him. I have peeps hanging out with me in the waiting room. K is okay working on projects in the garden and keeping in touch from home. We will know the results of the biopsy tomorrow Friday post op. Whatever the news on that can wait. Tonight we rest and remember a lovely time last night with friends. Next time even more will come to enjoy a cruise and celebrate with us. We'll give you more that 12 hours notice next time.

I've been thinking of you both and praying all morning. Isolated in brain - that's great news! I know that you can you can use every bit of good news, and the best news is that Rocco is so full of light and life and joy and energy, that God will watch over him today, knowing we need his light for as long as possible.
