BOSTON, MA — Wall High School student-athlete Mason Plummer has undergone a successful brain surgery and is recovering extremely well.
On Wednesday, March 25, Plummer went in for a 3- to 4-hour brain surgery to remove a cavernous malformation.
His mother, Angela Plummer, kept everyone updated on what was going on in a couple of social media posts.
Mason went back for surgery at about 10 a.m. Wednesday, and the surgery was finished at 2:30 p.m. He was throwing up and in a little pain through the night, but the next morning he woke up and was no longer nauseous.
Then, in another post the day after the surgery, it was reported Mason had started eating and drinking. He also started his physical therapy and was discharged from the ICU.
The post read: “34 hours! That was all that was needed and Mason WALKED out the doors of Boston Children’s Hospital after being in an operating room for brain surgery."
His parents, Chris and Angela Plummer, also thanked Mason’s doctor and everyone praying for their son.
“God is so good! This kid has had quite the army of prayer warriors surrounding him this entire time! We felt the love here in Boston! We are thankful God put Dr. Smith in our path! Boston is a long way from home, but we sought out one of the best of the best for our brain condition! Goodness! Just in awe of all God has done!”
The post continued:
“Mason has a ways to go in terms of his healing and recovery. The brain takes time. He’s good for about 10 minutes and then he needs to go back to sleep. But it will only get better from here! Thank you for praying for Miracles for Mason! We got to see them happen before our very eyes! Please continue to pray for his recovery, his incision, and that the rest of his cavernomas would never grow or bleed! Please pray for a cure for all who endure living with cavernous malformations.”
The Plummers will stay close to the hospital a few more days as a precaution.
Angela Plummer thanked the neurosurgery team and stated that the hospital was phenomenal. She also confirmed that the surgeon was able to remove the entire cavernoma in Mason’s right frontal lobe.
