Update On Trista

Here is some news on Trista. This is an e-mail I recieved from Carolyn, Trista's grandma.
The tumor was removed intact and did not rupture. This type of tumor is rare at any age. They do not know exactly what type of tumor it is and it is being sent to different research universities to try to determine what type of tumor it is. They did take some lymph nodes to be tested.
A pediatric oncologist will see Trista tomorrow. He will determine the best type of treatment to be given. We are looking at chemotherapy and/or radiation. Trista will be at St. Vincent's until Thursday or Friday.
Once again thank you for your thoughts, prayers and encouragement.
