I just wanted to tell you that I am starting to pray for you and will continue to do so. I'm praying for continued peace, comfort, and laughter to cover you through the rest of your journey. I know God is bigger and wildly more capable of anything that we can even imagine. And I know he is smiling over your faith and hope in Him right now. I'll continue to check for updates so I can specifically pray over you and your family. <br /><br />Much love,<br />Jessica PierceJesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02159669197839789249noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8889051203721165610.post-77936366558809733142011-02-04T13:08:12.410-06:002011-02-04T13:08:12.410-06:00Sarah,

He went in for brain surgery (he thinks it's cool to tell people he had that now) the tumor was benign and the surgery and recovery were nothing like we had anticipated - it went fantastic! That was about 15 years ago and he is still doing great. He goes in for a check now and then but was a blessing that doctors can treat things like this and so quickly. I know how scary it is but please know that there are many who have done this and with God's help have come through it with flying colors!

I am Steve's sister Amy and grew up knowing Pat and the whole Fries family as our very own. I am so sorry to hear about this and I will be praying for you and your family. Pat is an awesome person and after reading your blogs I know that he is an awesome husband and of course a wonderful dad to your kiddos...If you guys need anything at all please don't hesitate to ask like I said before we are like family and you have become apart of us as well. Please keep us posted and best of luck on your journey to Dallas and may God heal all things and bless you and your family even more.<br />amyAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8889051203721165610.post-30531668933170701712011-02-02T21:04:08.101-06:002011-02-02T21:04:08.101-06:00You all are amazing.

I don't always click on the prayer requests links, but when I read that you've just been diagnosed with a brain tumor...well I had to come stop by and leave a little note.<br /><br />See, this past summer I was also diagnosed with a brain tumor. I had been having strange symptoms for months, and no doctor had been able to make any sense of it. One thought I was making it all up. But eventually I had an MRI and they found a "golfball sized tumor" in my brain. A few days later I had surgery, and a few days after that I was back home. I went to Miami Childrens (I'm 18 now, but was 17 at the time) and it was FANTASTIC. The hospital was great, my neurosurgen and nurses were so awesome.<br /><br />My healing process has been long, but it's been good. The tumor was found to be benign (praise God!!) and I only go back for checks every so often for the next 10 years. I am praying the same will be true for you.<br /><br />If you would like to contact me or read about my journey with what I'm sure you understand is very surprising and unexpected news, please email me or check our my story on my blog.<br /><br />http://onegirl-itjusttakesone.blogspot.com<br /><br />I will be praying for you, Sarah, and your entire family. I specifically pray for crazy peace from God to get you through these days.<br /><br />OneGirlAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10851719810947941530noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8889051203721165610.post-36649897699521711192011-02-02T20:22:24.589-06:002011-02-02T20:22:24.589-06:00Hi there-

My 29 year-old brother had a seizure that lead to a diagnosis of a brain tumor on Nov. 16, 2010. After his surgery, pathology reported that his tumor was a grade 4 astrocytoma (glioblastoma). My family has searched HIGH and LOW to find the best doctors in the nation. I know this is an overwhelming time, but I want to share some advice I got at the beginning of my journey: breath, love, and pray. God WILL lead to you the right doctors. Listen to him and take your time. He lead my brother to UCLA.<br /><br />God Bless,<br />kayleywille at gmail dot comAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8889051203721165610.post-77053837937601916952011-02-02T20:01:02.031-06:002011-02-02T20:01:02.031-06:00Hello, just found your blog and wanted to say you ...Hello, just found your blog and wanted to say you are in my prayers.
