We made it safely to Salt Lake.
Saying goodbye to Emily and Andrew was just as hard as I thought. I tried not to cry in front of them. Andrew said, "I love you Mommy and I don't want you to go." Emily started to cry. I gave their puppies extra hugs and kisses and that was that.
I am here in Salt Lake surrounded by my family, Mom, Dad, Brothers, Brian and my baby Levi. It's so good to be with them. I am so grateful for all of the support.
Thanks for all of the prayers and messages! We'll let you know tomorrow what time surgery is scheduled for on Tuesday.

On May 5th, 2010 our life was redefined when we discovered that I have a tumor
growing in the spinal cord of my neck.
The purpose of this blog to keep an updated record of our "Life Redefined" and give you the details you might be wondering about (surgery, recovery and other random daily stuff, etc...)
For our friends and our family members who want to be kept updated this is the easiest way for us to do it. It's also good therapy for me to write it down!
We still want you to call or visit if you feel like it - we find so much strength from you. All of your words and encouraging thoughts and prayers are a great blessing for us!

oh kara....what can a person say on the eve of an event such as this? please know that we are praying for you and trust that God is in control. may you be truly blessed by Him as you prepare for tomorrow.
You're in my thoughts and prayers. I'm glad you made it safe and that your family is with you. You're an amazing person!
Kara,
You have been in my prayers these last few weeks and I just wanted you to know that I am thinking of you. I live only 20 minutes south of salt lake, so I hope to come visit you during your recovery. I will bring Chelsea Smith along and we can have a little Spokane reunion:)and we will represent our Spokane counterparts who wish they could be with you. Tomorrow will go well, without a doubt.
Love, Amanda (Lal) Swanson
