Hope everything works out, and he recovers quickly and completely.

Update: Dad had surgery mon and everything went well. Surgeon thinks they got everything out and want to do a round of chemo to nuke any leftovers.

Says he'll have to do an MRI every three months until the next of forever just to follow up and make sure no other tumors show up.

As of now the anesthesia has worn off and he has concussion like symptoms. Poor short term memory, math skills (lobe most pushed on by tumor) were poor, and he's very tired. He no longer has any strange emotional or personality issues.


Pappy Rausch will not be behind the wheel or at the stove for a while but everything considered we were very lucky. Doc expects most of these symptoms will go away with time.

We're not completely out of the woods yet but the worst case seems behind us. We're very lucky...

Great news. I hope you all enjoy your Christmas.

Didn't see this thread earlier.

This is great news and here's to a smooth recovery to complete health. :)

Great news about the success of the surgery.

Thanks for the update.
Continued prayers to you and yours!

That is great news Rausch! Merry Christmas to you and your family!

Just fantastic. Yay Pappy.
