Jason is going in for surgery tomorrow.
Brain surgery.
He has been suffering and fighting brain cancer for awhile now.
He is 33.
He has three children.
His cancer has become aggressive this past month.
Tomorrow morning he will have a biopsy on the 'fingering' part of the cancer,
possibly a shunt placed in his ventricles for better drainage to relieve pressure,
and a tumor removed from his right frontal lobe.
My sister and I are planning our trip to the hospital
as soon as we drop off our little ones at school on Thursday.
I am hoping I can handle the bruising better than last time.
Last time I had to lay on the hospital floor to keep from passing out.
It looked like someone took a baseball bat to his face.
This time I will be prepared. I hope he will be up for visitors.
I will be excited to see him and I hope he will be in less pain.

I will definitely keep your brother in my prayers tonight.
