I'm scared...

As a father I don't like to admit feelings of fear. I feel like I need to be the strong one, the one that the family can count on to be there, no matter what.
But I am scared, I fear for the life and vision of my older daughter.

Over the last few weeks she's been having trouble with her vision. On Sunday she lost the vision in her right eye. Today we found out why, four days of tests have found a growth between her optic nerves. It is pushing hard on her right optic nerve and touching the left. It has not touched the brain yet, so we have some good news. Surgery is either tomorrow or Monday, she will have a cat-scan early tomorrow morning to find out how they are going to get at it.

I'm asking for your thoughts, prayers and warmth in this trying time.
