Please take a minute and pray for my mom. She will be having brain surgery tomorrow at 3 pm. The problem with the tumor is its location, they can not get to it to biopsy it--it's located right on the optic nerve. So although it might be lymphoma and treatable with radiation, they have to open up her brain to find that out. Which means a lot of risk, the most likely her loss of sight in that eye.
We're saying lots of prayers and hoping with lots of faith.
This afternoon we're attending the temple together and then we'll take part in a hair cutting ceremony, since they'll be shaving most of it tomorrow anyway. I love my mom so much and hate to think of all the recovery she has in front of her. However, she is a great woman of faith & has said over and over that she feels peace. I also feel peace and know through this trial much good will be born.
Thanks for all your words of compassion, it helps so much.

I can definitely spare prayers for your mom. I pray that everything tomorrow goes very smoothly!
Count us in for sure. Give me a call if you need us to watch Eli or ANYTHING at all.
Your mom will be in my thoughts and prayers. I pray everything will be okay and go well tomorrow.
You can count on me for a couple prayers...and anything else you need!
Oh man. This is such a scary time for your family. I will for sure be praying for you. And from my experience, it gets better from here. Treatment was easier emotionally that the diagnosis part. I hope that is so for your mom!
Isn't it weird that we both have the same picture on our blog. :)
We will pray for your family, Mariah! Keep us updated!
We are praying for your mom and for you for the strength you'll all need to make it through this. That picture of your parents is great, I love it.
They are doing amazing things for Lymphoma so hopefully all the research that they have done for it will all benefit your mom. We will be praying our hearts out, please keep us updated. I will put her name on my marathon day jersey as one of the cancer patients I am walking for. We love you and please let us know if there is anyway we can help you. If you would like to get information on Lymphoma let me know I have great connections for that.
Hope all goes well tomorrow. Prayers coming your way for sure...
May there be peace upon all of you at this trying time.
I am thinking of you and praying for your amazing mom today. Let me know how things go. And I love that picture of your parents. It is beautiful!
I put your family on the prayer list yesterday at the Oregon temple. My family, Jeff, and I are all thinking and praying for her.
Just wanted to let you know that I'll be thinking about you and your family today and that you are in our prayers.xxx
Good luck! You are definitely in our thoughts and prayers!
we wish the best for your mom. I didn't read your blog until today so we'll pray for a quick recovery. How scary though, nothing bad should ever happen to moms...
I hope things went well today. Your family has been on my mind and in my prayers.
