I'd greatly appreciate any prayers/kind thoughts for our family. Thank you.

So a bit of an update...
The details I have been receiving thus far have been very piece by piece. We now know 100% that the tumor removed from her ovary was malignant. However, all other tests came back clear and they are sure that the cancer has not spread. A board of doctors reviewed her case and because it was only this tumor, chemo is not needed at this time! Of course she will be extremely closely monitored as time goes on, but we are so thrilled to hear this news!
Thank you all who offered kind thoughts and prayers.
