5knights3maidens Posted December 21, 2008 Share Posted December 21, 2008 (edited) Please pray for Alyssa. She is a 21 year old woman from our church who had a tumor removed from her brain on Monday. We got word this morning that she had 6 seizures this morning and they were to operate. This would decide if she would live or not. Please pray for her....We have not heard anything as of yet. Edited to say: She also had swelling of the brain. Edited December 21, 2008 by 5knights3maidens Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

5knights3maidens Posted December 21, 2008 Author Share Posted December 21, 2008 No news yet. We should find something out this afternoon at church. I will write when I found out something. Thanks so much! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
5knights3maidens Posted December 21, 2008 Author Share Posted December 21, 2008 Alyssa is so far ok. She did not have another surgery. We went to church this afternoon and Pastor said that they are trying to regulate her seizures with medicine. The tumor was on the part of the brain that controls speech, movement, etc. I believe she has a long way to go. She is to have absolutely no visitors. Please pray that she recovers with no problems and that she continues to have faith in the Lord. (same for her family). Thank you so much for your prayers!

5knights3maidens Posted December 23, 2008 Author Share Posted December 23, 2008 Alyssa is doing well. My son talked to her brother today and he said she is doing much better. She is on alot of medication. When I had posted about her being "very ill" and she needed the other surgery to keep her alive..I believe it was not true. We do not know who started it but it went through the whole church. Believe me, she is still very sick, and had seizures but I'm so thankful it wasn't as bad as we thought. I was so shaken up ... we've had quite a few people (on the younger side) pass away in the last few years that I was thinking I couldn't and didn't want to hear of lossing another friend again. Thanks so much for your prayers and I will keep updating. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chelle in MO Posted December 23, 2008 Share Posted December 23, 2008 That's good news! I'm sorry for the rumor that went around. That is always upsetting. Chelle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mommyof4ks Posted December 24, 2008 Share Posted December 24, 2008 So glad that Alyssa is doing better and did not need that surgery. It may have been that the docs simply did not know what was going on at the time. When our son was diagnosed with cancer it we went from he will be ok to perhaps he will not respond to this med to reduce his swelling to oh yea that worked great, and all of that in a matter of 24 hours. There will likely be more ups and downs before she is stabilized, so keep praying. Hugs to her family and those who love her as everyone watches her endure this, and prayers for a speedy recovery for Alyssa. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
5knights3maidens Posted December 28, 2008 Author Share Posted December 28, 2008 We were told today that the tumor that was removed from Alyssa's brain is cancerous. They do believe they removed it all but she will be doing chemotherapy for 6 weeks. My dd was talking to her father (on Facebook ;))Friday and he said she is doing very well. I'll keep you updated.

Blessedfamily Posted December 29, 2008 Share Posted December 29, 2008 You know, many times with brain cancer they can't even operate. She was able to have it removed. That part is a hopeful. :001_smile: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
