I got an e-mail from Carol Ann's (iluuvpups) friend that I will post below. She had her Translab done here in Michigan today. So glad to hear she made it through surgery well. Very disappointed to hear they couldn't get all the tumor, but sure it is much better than to push it and damage the facial nerve. I still believe she was in great hands and the doctors made the best choice for her situation (in which...wow, are we all very different).
Please keep her in your prayers! She gave me the permission to update you all & will let you know if I hear more!

Carol Ann's surgery is over and per the doctors went "great". They removed all but a tiny bit of the tumor (the size of the tip of the pencil lead) because it was on the facial nerve. That tiny bit will be removed with radiation in a few weeks.
When I spoke to her sister in law & cousin, Carol Ann was not awake but was recovering in ICU, where she will spend the night.
