Post Brain Surgery update

 The operation is complete and the Doctor said it was successful. Everything went as planned. The procedure was 8+ hours but there were no problems. They believe they got all of the tumor but they will take a cat scan tomorrow. He doesn't have any facial paralysis but right now he is in a lot of pain which is expected. He is fairly alert and communicating.

It will be a team of surgeons and will likely be an 8+ hour surgery. It is pretty much a given that I will lose all hearing on my right side.  As a professional musician, you can imagine that will be a major adjustment for me.  They will also sever the right balance nerve during this surgery which will take some time to get used to.
