Dear Friends & Family,
On Wednesday May 23rd I'm scheduled to have a benign tumor (adenoma) removed from my pituitary gland. (Unbelievable how many times I've written that word and I still can't spell it right the first time! :) It turns out these are relatively common.
I have a Caring Bridge website where you can post any messages for us: caringbridge.org/visit/jeffcunningham2 (
https://www.caringbridge.org/visit/jeffcunningham2)
Please ignore the fundraising plea when you first visit the site, unless you’re so inclined.
On the website, in the Ways to Help section, there a a couple of links if you want to learn more about the adenoma.
The surgery will be done at Mayo Clinic in Minnesota. It’s a relatively straightforward surgery and I should just be in the hospital overnight, if no complications. I'm looking forward to getting it removed and behind me but also to experiencing health care at Mayo.
If you'd like to help, your prayers and thoughts during the next few days will be much appreciated.
I've seen the power of prayer in more serious medical situations experienced by others and truly believe in the words on a plaque
I saw in an intensive care ward, "Prayer Changes Things."
Thanks
Jeff (and Cathy)
