Hooray

The surgery is over and that is the reason for the title. The procedure was that they would remove the breast and then he would remove a lymph gland and have a frozen section taken. If there was cancer in the section than the next one would be removed and checked until one was found without sign of cancer. Well, that is what he did and guess what? NOTHING found in the first, the best of all possible answers. Darilyn then spent the next four hours under the control of the plastic surgeon who was to reconstruct the breast and reduce the other. Oh, this surgeon is the best in the area. They say her work is art. I will be the judge of that eventually, but for now I will give her the benefit of the advertising by others.

Darilyn was admitted and spent the night at the hospital. I got over there at about 9 this morning and she was bright eyed and bushy tailed. Tired and such, but ready to go home. The doctors agreed and we left after lunch. We got home and got her settled in. Friends and family came over this PM. Darilyn's girl friend from work wanted to make dinner for us and it was great. After that, Darilyn laid down and she is sleeping right now. All is good with the world. Just have to get her healed and then it will all be back to normal. So that is the status of the day.

  1. That's excellent news. (I've been checking your blog every hour or so all day.) She has started on the road to recovery. Normal? Somehow I doubt that. :-) Thanks for the update.
