We met with the pediatric surgeon at Hopkins on Friday. I completely expected them to say that the lump was clearly a cyst and could be easily removed. Instead they said they could not tell if it was a cyst or a solid mass so we were sent for an ultrasound. We ended up going to 3 radiology places because of insurance issues. Finally ending up at Advanced where my mom's friend works and was able to get us on the schedule. Thank God for placing her there.
So we found out that the lump is a complex, solid, vascular mass and we will not know if it is benign or malignant until it is removed and biopsied. This was not what we wanted to hear and it has hit us hard. However we know that God is faithful and His plan is perfect so we go forth praying that Benjamin will be ok. My head knows the Lord is in control, My head knows that Benjamin is really only loaned to me. But knowing this does not stop my heart from hurting and praying with all that I am that my precious son will be ok.
