Today Peter had a CAT scan on his abdomen and the doctor didn’t like what she saw. A tumor was apparent on or around Peter’s kidney. Erika and Ty were ordered to get to the Twin Cities immediately and check into the University Medical Center.
Ty, Erika, and Peter arrived at the hospital and checked in. They learned that the initial diagnosis is Neuroblastoma. The next step is to operate tomorrow afternoon in order to remove as much of the tumor as possible.
Peter is in good spirits. The play rooms in the hostpital have fish tanks and lots of new toys to check out. He doesn’t comprehend exactly what’s going on. I wish I could say the same for the adults. I don’t think any of us are going to sleep much tonight.
Hi Peter and Family…
We are thinking about you a lot!!! I hope the hospital has lots of toys.
We fed your cat yesterday. She must have been hiding because we did not see her.
Today I will water the flowers.
Steve says hi!
Ali, Joel and Jerad say hi too. Jerad just had knee surgery again, this week, so he can relate to having an operation.
Hope to see you soon.
Love,
