Out of Surgery

The doctor started on time and ended early!  She was done about 8:30.  She is in recovery and will be there until about 10 or 11 am.

The doctor's report was good.  He only needed to make one small incision so the process went much faster.  It was easier he said because she is small. "The typical Wisconsin person would have take a lot longer" :-).  He took out about 8 inches and said clearly there was a "hard" area where the tumor was.  He did not see any obvious signs of the cancer spreading or it in the lymph nodes.  We will have a full pathology report at the end of next week.

I will post more later and see if she will let me take a picture :-)

He is hopeful that she can be released by Sunday.  She has to have a BM, no bloating or discomfort.

Christine is at St. Luke's Hospital (27th and Oklahoma Ave.)
Room F 3250

Thanks for ALL your prayers and concern.  literally hundreds of Facebook posts and texts.  I can't keep up with you all!  To God the glory.
