All of the planning is done, Dad is situated, and they've started the biopsy. They should be getting pretty close to handing off some tissue to the neuropathologist for a quick look to determine if they have enough. That takes about 30-40 minutes. If it's enough, they'll close and we'll get to talk to the doctors soon. Best guess is he'll go to recovery around 1PM CST assuming they don't need to go back for more tissue samples. Which would put him up in his ICU room around 2 or 2:30PM.
Our nurse communicator (seriously, such a great service) called us within a few minutes of the biopsy starting, so we expect to be called again when things are wrapping up. I'll continue to try and keep you updated. My computer refuses to connect to the network here, so I'm at the mercy of the waiting room computer being available.
