My cousin's FW has a cancerous tumor on her spine. She's only 26, an athlete, eats right, and the nicest person you'd ever want to meet. She has to have major back surgery which includes removing some of her vertabrae on Tuesday to have the tumor removed. She'll be out of work for 2 months.
My cousin is in his last year of med school and his FW had her xrays done at his hospital, so he picked them up for her and saw the tumor (he'd done a rotation in oncology so he knew right away) and had to break the news to her. Its just awful.
So, if you can spare any prayers for them I'd really appreciate it. We're hopeful that they get it all and that she doesn't end up paralyzed.
