Last year when we found out about Rosa’s CML we also discovered that she had a tumor on her brain.  It was call a menegoma and was an incidental find.  We were told that it was not attached to anything and that it was a slow-growing, none malignant tumor.  Therefore we just assumed that we were not to worry about it at the time and deal with the CML.  Well recently we have found out that the tumor had grown twice its original size in one year and is not pressing down on her brain causing some problems at this time and will continue to grow at a faster than normal rate and cause even more severe problems.  It’s got to come out!  But not without some complications that could occur during surgery.  It’s not a high risk surgery but because it is on the brain Rosa could suffer bleeding, blood clot, and even death due to complications that could occur during any surgery.  So we are once again reaching out for prayer.  Prayer for her on Thursday, November the 5th which is the day of her surgery and know that whatever happens, we will give God the glory.  Thanks
