Update on Zac

ZAC ATTACK!
We had Zac's MRI today to get a better look at his tumor and after seeing the results the oncologist decided we don't need to operate at this time. This lipoma isn't as solid as his other one and it would be a little more complicated to remove and it isn't causing any harm and isn't near his spine at all so we'll just keep our eye on it for now.

Zac is getting his tonsils out next Thurs. March 5. Yuck! It'll be a rough week but it'll be so good in the long run. They are so big it's causing him trouble breathing while he sleeps. Sorry this pic is kinda gross, but wanted to give you an idea of how ginormous these things are! (I was trying to hold down his tongue with my finger while quickly taking the picture at the same time so it's a little blurry)


So have Zac in your prayers next Thurs!
