Kelly Stafford, the wife of Detroit Lions quarterback Matthew Stafford, announced on Sunday that she is home from the hospital following surgery to remove a brain tumor earlier this week.
Stafford said she was diagnosed with an acoustic neuroma earlier this year after dealing with spells of vertigo starting in January. Tests revealed the tumor and she announced it on April 3.
She posted on Instagram that her surgery was scheduled to take six hours, but took 12 to complete because they found an abnormal vein. She wrote, though, that her doctors were familiar with the vein and had written a paper on it.
