Update

I had my surgery at Huntsman Cancer Hospital on Tuesday. Things went really well. My surgeon is amazing. (that is why we went with him – he is one of the few that could handle what we were up against). I just can’t say enough good things about the people at Huntsman. They have been so wonderful to work with. So, after surgery they had to move me to the University Hospital. They were short on rooms at Huntsman and needed to save the ones they had left for their cancer patients. By Wednesday I was up and walking around. They took all my tubes off and said if I could keep food down I could go home on Thursday. All went well on Wednesday, so I got to come home Thursday around noon. I feel a lot better than I thought that I would at this point. So, I am home recovering, trying not to do too much. I am grateful the surgery is over and that I am home. I am grateful that I feel so much better than I thought that I would, and I am so incredibly grateful for all of the thoughts and prayers that have been offered for me and for all that have helped my family this week. Thanks for all the sleepovers, flowers, gifts, prayers, cards, and visits. We couldn’t have done it without you!
