If you have some moments today when you are sitting around doing nothing or just zoning out at your desk, please take some time to send some positive thoughts and energy to Serena, who is in Johns Hopkins Hospital in Baltimore recovering from cancer surgery. Serena is the daughter of my friend Becky. She is three years old and was diagnosed with Stage 4 Neuroblastoma last June. She had surgery to remove as much of the tumor as possible, and has been undergoing Chemo since July. Friday she underwent the second surgery to remove the rest of the tumor. The surgeon was able to get all of the tumor, but it took 8 hours instead of the expected four, and was an incredibly intense surgery that involved removing some of Serena's organs to get to the tumor. She is having a difficult time in recovery and had to be moved back to the Pediatric ICU last night. She is recovering but the danger of pneumonia is very high. Becky has been keeping everyone updated via her online journal. Hang in there, Serena and Becky!
