It turns out it is really hard to determine if the biopsy (taken during Elises operation) are benign or malignant. So after two and a half weeks of work here in Sweden they were sent off to be analysed in the U.S.A. It feels good that the doctors are doing everything they can to get the correct answer but it is so hard to be waiting for so many weeks, the uncertainty i nervwrecking.

Fortunately Elise is doing good. She has been going to school for 1,5 hour every day. These are the get-well-soon-cards she makes for the kids at the hospital.

The operation went well

The operation went well

Today Elise had her operation.
At 9.00 we left her asleep in the hands of the nurses and doctors.
At 15.15 we got the call from the surgeon that the operation went very well.
They were able to take out 95% of the skulltumour.
It had also grown into the dura (the tissue that surrounds the brain) which they scraped.
They send the tumour to the patologist to determine if it was benign or malign. Results will be in in two weeks.

But for now we are happy with a good operation.
