Tucker Price, the two-year old son of Marsha and Tom Price underwent surgery early this morning at Primary Children's Medical Center to remove a large malignant tumor on one of his kidneys. The surgery was a success in that the tumor had not invaded other internal organs and was completely removed, and Tucker will now begin a five-month course of chemo-therapy. Doctors expect Tucker to remain in the hospital for the duration of the week. Family hope for a release on Friday as that it is birthday.Tucker's sister Peyton is a kindergarten student at the Choir School, and his mom assists with the Pre-K extended program. His cousin Brennen is a fifth grade student, and two cousins, Samantha and Paige, are alumni of the choir school. Tucker is the grandson of Bill and Joleen Warfield, long-time members of the Cathedral parish.
We'll keep you updated on his progress.
