UPDATE: Prayers For Brooke

About to start the biopsy - Brooke just went in! Prayers please! — at CHOP.
Brooke is at CHOP now waiting to have a biopsy of her tumor on L4 of her spine. They will be sending this out to a lab to see if they can get information on the genetic make-up of the tumor to then see what treatments it might respond best to. Please pray that the procedure goes smoothly, that the pain is minimal and that they are able to get helpful information.

UPDATE: Brooke is done with her tumor biopsy (2 1/2 hours). She is in the recovery room and woke a little bit ago. Her throat/speaking bothering her due to being intubated. She is having a little pain at the biopsy site but doing okay (although her meds haven't worn off yet so that could change). She will have to limit activity for 3 weeks while her spine heals. Thanks everyone for the positive prayers and well-wishes!
