COKATO, MN - After a CAT Scan found a quarter-size tumor on the front part of Lee Dahlquist’s brain, surgery was scheduled last Tuesday to remove it. The tumor was removed and turned out to be benign which Dahlquist was relieved to hear. “I prayed a lot,” Dahlquist said during a phone conversation Thursday. Dahlquist was in good spirits and is out of the intensive care unit at Abbott Northwestern Hospital and in his own room. If all goes as planned, Dahlquist could be home by the first part of this week.
