October 24 update

I spoke with Dr. Rossi. Currently she does not have availability to do surgery until December 4. Because we have to coordinate with Dr. Zani’s office, we are not certain if that will be the date or not.

I will be on a priority list for surgery before December 4 should something come available, but the likelihood of that is minimal since we need both Dr. Rossi and Dr. Zani in the OR.

In the meantime, we are going to start Lupron. I will need to go to Duke next week to get that shot because she cannot prescribe it at another facility.

Specific prayer requests:

• A surgery date before December 4

• Noticeable efficacy from starting Lupron

• Patience in the waiting
