I'm glad you feel like she's in good hands...that's very important.

Tomball hospital just would not do anymore testing because she did not have insurance. I think if she had a gold card they would have kept her. Gold cards are for low income families but it takes a while to get approved. If you don't have insurance or a gold card then you have to go to a county hospital if you want to be treated. They will not know if the tumor is cancerous until it is removed. Michelle's blood work looks normal so that sounds encouraging. We just have to keep praying that she will be okay.
