Ok, I Can Tell You Now!

Hi Friends,

I have been given the go ahead from Lauren to let you know the big decision. If all goes as planned, Lauren will be having a liver resection! We talked with Dr. Sonnenday, her liver surgeon, for over an hour a week ago Monday and he said now is the right time. Lauren is going to call him tomorrow and let him know. I think we were all in shock when we first heard and have finally snapped out of it. Lauren had to be 100% sure she wanted to take this on. She said she was thinking a few days ago about everything and felt happy, so she knew it was meant to be. She has made a request that she only wants to hear positive thoughts. I don't think I even need to say that to any of you who read this blog. You are all so supportive and wonderful. I think she was talking about random people on Facebook. I will go into more detail about everything later. I just didn't want to leave you wondering what was up. Much love to all of you.

  4. Dear Pam

    This is wonderful news. I am a friend of Joe Garassino and his family and that is how I came upon your blog. This news is so uplifting, I just had to let you know that you have one more person praying for Lauren! Sending prayers and positive thoughts. God Bless you!

  5. Thank you, Sherrie. That means so much to us. Lauren can use all the prayers she can get. I am heartbroken about Joe, but I know he is no longer in pain. Thanks again.

    Love, -Pam

  6. I cried when I heard! Words cannot express how excited I am for Lauren and the whole family. It gives hope where sometimes there is none with this cancer. I admire her so much for her strength and determination.

    I love you Pam and I love Lauren so much...which is odd considering I have not even met you ladies. But I know that God has brought you to my life for a reason. And that is to watch Lauren beat this cancer...

    Again...no words! I am praying every day and every night that this all goes according to God's plan!

    Was out on jury duty and just super busy this week. So sorry it took so long to respond to all of this. But you have all been on my mind!!!

    Love,

    Teresa
