He is so strong

We've been told over and over again how strong our boy is, and man does he prove it!

Lincoln did incredible today. He stayed strong through the more than 7 hour surgery AND he kept his kidney! I couldn't be more grateful for Dr. Mattei and the team at Childrens Hospital of Philadelphia.

All three surgeons we consulted with as well as his oncologist at Hopkins and CHOP agreed Lincoln's kidney would have to go based off the scans. But, once Dr. Mattei began pulling the tumor off his kidney, it looked great! He saved the kidney and resected over 90% of the tumor. Before the evening was over he was smiling and drinking juice.

We are so thrilled!!! Thank you to everyone who kept us in your thoughts.
