Ida’s Story

Site created on March 20, 2021

On March 9th Ida had a seizure and was rushed to Children's in Saint Paul.  It was later discovered that she had a mass in her head that was removed that Friday, March 12th.  We were discharged that Sunday the 14th and awaiting the results from pathology.  We were hopeful that that would be the end of this journey, but we then received the distressing news that the mass was not as low grade(more benign[the better one]) as the surgeon had hoped.
