7pm nothing new to report. I left the hospital. Tom designated his sister Susan (who is a nurse practitioner) and I spokespeople for the family. I left when Susan came back from dropping the kids off. They were going to try and get the implant out. If they do that tonight there is a possibility that she could get an MRI tonight which would give them more information. Plan is still to transfer to Tampa General hopefully tommorrow. There is a neurosurgeon at TGH with experience with tumors in the region of the brain where Christines is located.
