Surgery Report

As of 3:30pm Debbie is out of surgery and will be in recovery for the next 2 hours. The surgeons were encouraged by the surgery and what they were able to accomplish. The surgeon said that everything went according to plan. It does not appear that the cancer has metastisized to her spine or the muscle tissue around her spine. The cancer did invade some lymph nodes along the spine that were removed.

The doctor was optimistic. Debbie will recover and we will meet with the doctors again in two weeks to discuss our options and the next steps to take. In order to allow Debbie time to rest and recover she will not be receiving any visitors until Friday. At that time please call our cell phones to set up a time to visit that would be best for Debbie. Thank you for all your love, prayers, and signs of support.

Jerry
