What happened - the short version

A few weeks ago we began to notice more pronounced changes in the way John was acting. We noticed partial loss of control of his face, slight memory loss, constant fatigue, an ongoing headache and stronger than normal tremors.

After a brief discussion it was decided to bring him in to the doctors office for evaluation. This was yesterday morning. The doctors office recommended to go straight to the ER even before he came in so at 9:30am he was in the ER. After an initial evaluation they wanted to do a cat scan. The results came back at 2pm - they had found a tumor in his brain.

He was then transferred from St. Johns to United hospital where they have a top notch neurosurgon department (best in the Twin Cities).

John is in good spirits all things considering and at this point we are waiting to hear more information.

I'm off to the hospital - more updates to come.

Thanks in advance for all the prayers for John.
