| Please pray for my daughter My daughter, Michelle Smith, is in Ben Taub hospital in Houston, Texas. She has a brain tumor that was discovered last Wednesday. She had been suffering with bad headaches and dizziness for two weeks so she went to the ER and that is when it was discovered. It is a quarter sized tumor on the brain near the pineal gland. The doctor told her there is a team of doctors that are studying the CAT scans and they have ordered a MRI that will probably be done on her hopefully tomorrow. The doctor told her it looks like she will need surgery but they won't know for sure until after the MRI is done. Michelle is 37 years old and has a husband and 3 boys, ages 10, 17 and 18. All your prayers will be greatly appreciated. I will keep everyone updated as I learn more. Also, if anyone has dealt with this type of brain tumor I would love to hear from you. I know Michelle will overcome this with all your prayers. |

ps - I'm in Houston - I work full time but if you need anything PLEASE let me know ... The only thing I can suggest is talking to MD Anderson Hospital for a 2nd opinion if that's possible - - Ben Taub is very good but can be overcome by emergencies ...it's one of only 2 trauma centers located in Houston - Prayers for you and keep us posted please - you must be devestated. | |
